Fiction. Romance. Historical Fiction. HTML:

There are worse things than hiding in a derelict old cottage, battling field mice, and sucking on one's last lemon. Or so Lady Annabella Price firmly believes. For example, spending the Season in London with her stepbrother and husband hunting, as her mother has ordered. Instead, Annabella sends her maid in her place and exults in her questionable triumph...

Until the insufferable Lord Seabrook shows up.

It seems like a simple favor for a friend, something to distract him from his need to find an acceptable wife. Jonathan Durham, Fourth Earl of Seabrook, travels to Haselmere to find the duke's stepsister and make certain no harm has befallen her. But Annabella is no damsel in distress. She's a willful, spirited lady, and the impetuous beauty intrigues Seabrook. When they're caught in a compromising position and forced into a hurried marriage, Seabrook sees it as the perfect solution to both their problems. But how can he convince his unwilling bride to give their marriage a chance when she's determined to have it dissolved?

At the beginning I found Annabellla so annoyingly childish I almost didn't continue, but there was enough intrigue to keep me reading. There was one scene involving a loaded pistol when childish tipped into dangerously stupid. But I continued because the banter between the 3 main characters was quite witty and helped carry the story along at a good pace.

Overall it was a good read and I did enjoy it. For me there were some unanswered questions still at the end, which I presumed are resolved in the next book in the series? ( )

Something Like a Lady by Kay Springsteen & Kim Bowman is a wonderfully humorous read. This was one of those books where everyone is house kept looking at me while I was reading it because I was laughing out loud. If you enjoy a good historical romance with a lot of humor thrown in this is a must read.

Lady Annabella Price is full of spunk, humor, and mischief. I loved Annabella from the beginning. She has no problem saying exactly what she is thinking and sometimes what she is thinking maybe should not be shared with others.

Jonathan Durham is a handsome fellow with a good attitude. He has to have a fine sense of humor with his grandmother around. As much as I loved Annabella I loved Gran more. This is one lady I think you would want on your side. She either really likes you or look out because this is one out spoken, pistol packing, arrow shooting Grandma.

I so enjoyed reading the story of Annabella and Jon. They don't exact start their relationship on the right foot and and there is a lot of drama and hilarious moments as these two get to know each other. There are a lot of twist and turns that I did not expect. There is a little mystery thrown in as well, much to my delight.

Overall this was just a really interesting historical romance that sure did keep my attention all the way through. I have not read the first story in this series and I didn't feel like I was missing any important details at all. However, as much as I enjoyed this book I sure would like to read the first in the Lady Series.

I had the pleasure of reading this fabulous story in exchange for sharing my opinion with you all. ( )
