Review: When the Marquess Was Mine

When the Marquess Was Mine When the Marquess Was Mine by Caroline Linden
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is your case of "fake engagement" by amnesia or "how a rake reforms himself". While the idea might not seem very original, there were a few things I really enjoy of this book. First, the ruse doesn't last all of the book and it's not the main point of conflict between the characters' love. It's a catalyzer to move the story forward, but it's not the story itself. The story is about two people that meet under different circumstances and realize they really like the true versions of themselves. While West's reforms might seem a little too rushed, it does work in the context of the story, as the amnesia is the perfect enabler of that change.
I liked this book and I look forward to read more from this author.
