Summary

Modern notions were all well and good - but where did one find a man to share them?

Though Frederica chafes at the restricted life she lives as the adopted daughter of an infamous bluestocking, she does agree with the philosophy: until men learn to appreciate women as intellectual equals, Frederica is better off without them!

But her sister’s recent elopement sparks fires of romance in Frederica’s well-educated head. She is ripe to accept the considerable charms of Lord Harry Danger, who saves her from a pack of drunken thugs - but if only he would treat her as an equal and stop all that silly flirting!

Great series

The second and just as good as the first. Slightly whacky and frenetic. Excellent narration.

Good but short.

Enjoyable yarn and somewhat unusual to this genre. The storyline is engaging and is supported by good narration. Main characters are not shown in great depth nor from their best angle, which is familiar M C Beaton trope.
One has to go through all the three books to get to the "mystery solved" and, annoyingly, to part with the three credits.
