Very nicely done story about two sisters who finally go to London for the season and come into their own. This was a pleasant romance , sisters were very close and caring, wound up with the right gentleman for each other. ( ) Plain Claire Sutton never expected to marry (and now that she's in her twenties, she almost certainly won't), but she intends to give her younger, prettier sister Lizzie every opportunity to. She arranges to give her a Season in London. While there, the girls are pursued by Bertram (from [b:Miss Hartwell's Dilemma|423107|Miss Hartwell's Dilemma|Carola Dunn|http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg|412211] and George, both eligible bachelors with considerable fortunes and charm. But each man is courting the wrong sister--when will they all realize who they truly love? By the end of this story, I was pretty tired of the misunderstandings and repression that comprise much of the plot. Nevertheless, it was a sweet little regency romance. Even better (and unlike many romances, particularly ones written by Heyer), there was no weird sexist, racist, etc. undertone. Although Claire Sutton had a disastrous coming-out and is now considered “on the shelf”, she has inherited some money and plans on taking her younger sister to London and financing her coming-out. Once her sister is married off, she will be free to retire to her country house and grow roses. Coming into contact with two men-about town, the dashing and handsome Lords Winterbourne and Pomeroy, both sisters were suddenly being courted. But were they being courted by the right man? I am a big fan of Georgette Heyer’s Regency novels, and it was quite obvious from the first chapter of Two Corinthians that Carola Dunn is also a fan. I enjoyed this engaging read, and although not quite the polished piece that Georgette Heyer produces, this was an enjoyable, light, humorous story that left a smile on my face.
