"Falling for Chloe" is a Regency romance in a traditional mould. Very traditional - if you've read Georgette Heyer's "Cotillion" you have really already read this story.
Chloe is a young and lively girl who has known Gilly, her neighbour, most of her life and they are the best of friends.

However, they ... Read More

Farr definitely writes with the flavor of Heyer, and the story starts out with great promise. Unfortunately, the more I read, the more I was disenchanted by it.
Chloe is supposed to be vibrant, independent, and innocent; more often, she comes across as ridiculously naive and reckless, lacking in common sense.

In this book, Gil and Chloe have known each other for years. They're the best of friends, but have never seen each other in any other light. Until one night they're stranded together in a cottage. Although both protest that nothing happened, suddenly a notice of their engagement appears in the newspapers.
Gil can't jilt Chloe. Chloe doesn't ... Read More
