Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

Original cover edition for this ISBN is here Seven years ago she broke his heart... When Robert Kemble stumbles across Victoria Lyndon in hedgerow maze, he can't believe his eyes. The girl who'd torn him in two, who let him plan on elopement and then left him standing by the side of the road, was suddenly within arm's reach, and even though his fury still knew no bounds, she was impossible to resist... Seven years ago he left her all but ruined... Victoria's father had told her an earl would never marry a vicar's daughter, and he was right. Robert had promised her marriage, then danced off to London while she suffered the shame of a foiled elopement. But even though Victoria doesn't particularly enjoy her new life as a governess, when Robert offers her a job of a different sort—his mistress—she refuses, unable to sacrifice her honor, even for him. But Robert won't take no for an answer, and he vows to make her his, through any means possible. Can these star-crossed lovers learn to trust again? And is love really sweeter the second time around?

    I really enjoyed Everything and the Moon by Julia Quinn. It was set in one of my favourite eras of history and I liked that it was true to the era, with the exception of the fact that it included the spicy scenes!
    I thought the characters were interesting and well written but I was annoyed at the <spoiler>miscommunication</spoiler> trope that went through the first part of the book and also Robert's <spoiler>arrogance and assumption that he could get everything he wanted, even if that was the way of the nobility back then</spoiler>.
    The plot didn't go where I expected to which was nice, although I did anticipate the ending <spoiler>clearly it was going to be a happily ever after</spoiler> but I was very happy it ended this way and all the loose ends got neatly tied up too.
    I'm looking forward to finding and reading/listening to more of Julia Quinn's work.
