A Loving Scoundrel (A Malory Novel)

As expected this was a really good book, funny, touching and satisfying. I couldn't put it down and it was engrossing to the last page. So much so I even read every word of the except from her next book. I have read many of the Malory novels but I think this is the best one yet. Lately I have been reading novels that weren't all that interesting. I should recount the experience here but it is hard for me to be negative and I kept trying to find books by those authors that I could call the best I have read. Meanwhile, I got this book and discovered what it is I always liked about a Johanna Lindsey book, that they are never what you expect by only reading the blurb on the jacket. This is about a child who dresses as a boy, and for good reason, so it is in the background of the heroine of the novel, but the story only uses that in what she learned and how she views the world from the perspective of a woman who sometimes thinks like a man. Otherwise, that is not the story here, it is a romance and a mystery and that is the fun in it. I suggest it as great book to spend a weekend with.
