I don’t like the robot voice that doesn’t even pronounce names correctly but it’s a good story.

Robot voice suck doesn’t show emotion at all or pronounce names correctly which drive me nuts. but good story

Pleasant Christmas romance

Nothing earth shaking but pleasant enough. The story is set at a Christmas house party which is always fun. The hero is a good guy ready to change his rakish ways for the right woman. The heroine is prim and proper and has a tendency cry. I couldn’t really warm up to her. Her younger sister, however, who is one of the minor characters, has the potential to be a fun heroine.
One of the more entertaining aspects of the book were the party games that the guests were required to play. One involved a choice between giving a “forfeit” or having soot smeared on one’s face, another was “bullet cake“ which concluded with someone being doused with flour. It made me wonder whether those really were traditional Regency-era house party games.
