Likable regency, A little old fashioned, which I liked. Also, the unexpected suitor was a clever turn. ( )

This was a cute, short Regency romance that was a lot of fun. Eugenia comes to stay with her socially superior cousins the Turvilles. Her aunt has schemed to have one of her sons marry Eugenia for her money. When Eugenia gets wind of this shortly before she arrives, she decides to defend herself by acting like a true "country cousin," brash, ill-spoken, and forward, with the most annoying accent she can muster. It works. Her aunt is horrified. Meanwhile, Eugenia starts to develop feelings for a handsome neighbor. Trying to sustain her dual personalities becomes something of a challenge; also, she discovers that there is more to her cousins than meets the eye.
A very entertaining, easy read! I thought it was funny and I liked that Eugenia's cousins Aubrey and Francis have a little more depth than is first suspected.
Thanks to NetGalley and Sapere Books for this digital review copy! ( )

Well written story with humor, characters, romance. Eugenia is a wonderful leading lady while Peter is too understated by the author to deserve her. ( )
