Actual Rating:3.5 
 Pros: great historical accuracy, more or less fleshed out characters, subtle supernatural interjection into the story (the "demon-hunting") without it seeming out of place for the time period, great romance and swoon worthy scenes without it being overdone or too cheesy. 
 Cons: the pacing; very slow at times, especially concerning the first half the book, the inner dialogue of the our main character Helen could get fairly tedious (ah, here she is thinking...and thinking and thinking and thinking...*throws book across room*), especially when it contributed to the lack of action (although, this is the regency period, so you can cut the author some slack). 
 Overall, it was enjoyable once I stuck it through the slow periods, and will definitely read the next book.
