This was one of the first romances I ever read and I really, really liked it, but I read it almost ten years ago. Hope it goes on sale soon because I really want to pick it up and see if it's as good as I remember. :)What was your first romance?

3 to 3 1/2 StarsThis is my first Lisa Kleypas book and there is not doubt that she is one INCREDIBLE writer.

Alex is one short tempered, bossy man who cannot handle not being in control all the time. He just cant stand the screw you, devil-may-care attitude of Lily Lawson and does everything he can to get one up on her,

After waffling between a four and a five, I'm going for broke and slapping a fiver on this wonderful story. Lily is a magnificent heroine. She just feels so REAL in everything she says and does.

When Alex comes along and is smitten almost from the start, she
