I loved reading every book. Several times I was laughing hysterically in public places, other times ugly crying. This series of firsts makes me was seconds and thirds and so forth.

Absolutely loved this box set of historical romances. Funny yet sweet in nature; hilarious in the antics of both heros and heroines trying to get the best of each other. An interesting look back into the past of history and beliefs that existed then and there.
