Lord of Scoundrels was #1 on the AAR poll, won awards, and is all-time favorite romance of many. Because of its good rep, I thought I'd love it as much as everyone else. Nope. Clearly something must be wrong with me since I can't seem to rave about this book. It's just a regular romance, nothing spectacular, in my opinion. I liked it, the banter and bickering was entertaining enough. However, most romances that I really enjoy I can finish in a day or so. This one took me a week and most of the time I just wanted to put it down and not even finish it. I think the one thing that stood out to me was the heroine (she's the reason I gave this 3 stars). I loved her. I usually find myself completely loving the hero but not this time. She was independent, charming, tough, gutsy (hello, she purposely shot the hero without even blinking a eye lol), witty, smart...I could go on and on.. Sometimes these type of heroines can be a bit annoying but LC did a great job with her, Jessica was one of the best written heroines I've ever come across.
