5.0 out of 5 stars Light and fun romance 30 Dec 2010
By josie82 TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Lady Kate Cole is exceptionally talented, exceptionally beautiful and the darling of the ton. The only problem is that she is also exceptionally clumsy and so prone to accidents that many find it wise to stay as far away from her as possible.

But that doesn't include Andrew Hunter. The strong, rugged man is barely a gentleman but he can't help but be charmed by the delightful Kate. When he decides that she'd make the perfect wife his mind is made up. Only Kate won't settle for anything less than a love match and Hunter doesn't believe in love. Who will win in their battle of wills?

This is actually the fourth and last book in the Providence Series (after As Luck Would Have It, Tempting Fate and Mcalistair's Fortune) a fact I hadn't realised when I started to read this book. Characters from the previous books featured and while it whet my appetite to read the previous books in the series, there's no need to have read them in order to understand and enjoy this story.

And I really did enjoy it. Kate was a likeable character - pretty and sweet with enough oomph to make her someone we could really root for. As for Hunter - he's my favourite type of hero - a rugged, sexy man who is barely a gentleman and in need of the love of a good woman. Together the pair were funny, sweet and had great chemistry.

The plot was fairly calm, focusing more on the relationship between Kate and Hunter than anything more adventurous. There was a sub plot concerning smugglers and Hunter's line of work but that really was only a very minor secondary story.

I was surprised by how much I really enjoyed this story and the writing style of Alissa Johnson. I'm really looking forward to reading the other books in this series and would recommend this book for people looking for a light, enjoyable romance. 5 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Book four of the Providence Series - Another Excellent Book by this Author.... 19 April 2010
By cb - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Andrew Hunter was once an orphan living on the streets and now he works for the War Department, rich from being a smuggler and rubs shoulders with Ton. He was been asked to protect Lady Kate Cole from admirer who could be involved with war crimes and smuggling. Mr. Hunter wants Lady Kate for his wife and slowly tries convince her... He can promise her a life of luxury but not love. Lady Kate can't stand Mr. Hunter and wants what all her family has a love match or no marriage at all... LOVED this book - LOVE this author - run out and buy it....

If you are looking for a great new author and great series I would suggest the Providence Series; As Luck Would Have It (Leisure Historical Romance) , Tempting Fate (Leisure Historical Romance) and Mcalistair's Fortune (Leisure Historical Romance).

5.0 out of 5 stars humorous delightful Regency 4 April 2010
By Harriet Klausner - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
She should be the Ton's top gem of the season, but alas Lady Kate Cole is not. Men avoid her as if she has the Black Plague out of fear of her propensity for accidents could harm them too. Kate knows she is the klutz of the century, but tries her best to avoid accidents. Yet no matter what she does, nothing goes right.

Government agent Andrew Hunter is the only exception to the male populace when it comes to kissable Kate. He wants her as his and actually enjoys the fact that she is a diamond in the rough. Andrew is assigned to watch over her at a party, an assignment he relishes. As he brings her into his smuggler's investigation, Andrew has so much material things he can provide to her; Kate only wants one thing in the world; a man who loves clumsy her as much as she does him.

The key to this humorous delightful Regency is the heroine who is so different than the usual sub-genre females. Kate makes the tale with her clumsiness that has every male running away from her as she is a hazard to one's health. The exception is the hero who is used to dangerous adventures and believes a lifetime with his beloved will prove the most satisfying dangerous adventure of them all. This is a terrific tongue in cheek historical as Alissa Johnson lampoons the perfect Regency female.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Enjoyable Romance with Humor and Heart 30 July 2010
By Cheri A. Bruce - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I loved this story! It's cute and funny how they come together. I loved Hunter's intense and planned pursuit of her and that he thought he was withholding his heart. Kate is just adorable! She is warm hearted and beautiful inside and out. I like how pleasantly surprized he is that she is quietly, actually very intelligent and gifted.I liked how he likes her clumsiness and encourages her dream of composing music, while everyone else does not. The attraction between Hunter & Kate is strong, and most of the story is about them. There is an interesting storyline dating back to when Kate was five, which only adds to the romance. This was a very enjoyable romance with humor and heart. I highly recommend this book.
