@Taja If you're referring to the Wyndham books, I didn't care for them, either. @Meghan Her next one also sounds interesting...

I’m so glad you feel this way! I’ve been really looking forward to this book and it’s fantastic to hear that Quinn is returning to form.

To be honest, I didn’t have this book on my to-buy list, I just wanted to visit your blog (you left a comment on my blog some time ago). The last two books I’ve read by Quinn didn’t work all that well for me. Thanks to your review, I’ll give this one a go. Too bad I just went book shopping this morning!

@Holly @nath Quite a few readers seem to think it’s Quinn’s best book in years. Mandi at http://smexybooks.blogspot.com also reviewed ‘What Happens in London’ yesterday, and Janicu has just posted her opinion http://janicu.livejournal.com I’m sure someone’s bound to disagree at some point, though.

I thought this was a cute book as well. I thought Olivia was really cute and so was Harry. Their relationship was adorable. Quinn doesn’t always work for me either, but she has a hit here.

@Mandi I just read your review & commented. Now I'm curious to read Kate Noble's 'Revealed'. @katiebabs I loved the way Quinn brought in elements from previous books. She was very clever about it as it didn't feel contrived. After finishing the book, I'm fervently hoping the sequel contains two things: a Smythe-Smith heroine and a certain male as author of a certain book...

Love laughed and laughed some more. This may possibly be my favorite Quinn book out of all of them. Harry is so, so sweet. When he realizes that Olivia is the one woman for him, it is so very romantic.
