I enjoyed this book immensely. Chloe was a wonderful, funny heroine, and Liam was the perfect match for her--good sense of humor as well as being a "hunk." Chloe's father, a duke, makes an ultimatum, that Chloe must choose a husband by the end of the London Season, or he will do it for her. Her antics have gotten her into trouble, as usual, and he decides that marrying her off will solve the problem. She has to marry at least an earl, or greater rank. He forgets to specify "Not Irish!" Chloe literally bumps into the hero on the street, and is infatuated at first sight. Over the course of the book, she develops a love for the hero as well, as she spends more time with him. She unfortunately blurts out in front of a crowd that she "wants him," the second time she sees him, and Liam is much too proud to be bought with Chloe's father's money. He is an impoverished land-owner. The book is sweet and also has great laugh-aloud scenes and dialogues. Chloe tends to talk by running on from topic to topic, and it is so funny when Liam tries to follow her train of thought, often getting de-railed by her. I laughed so hard over one scene that I scared the cat, who was sitting next to me! I couldn't put the book down, and it read way too quickly. Besides the great hero and heroine, the author brings back some of her characters from earlier books, which made the book even more enjoyable. Definitely a keeper, and worth paying the price for it out of print!
