Fans of Julia Quinn will find much that is familiar and enjoyable in Lindsey's debut 1790s romance, the first book of the Weston family saga. Isabella Weston is finally out and in pursuit of her older brother's best friend, James Sheffield. Orphaned at age 10 and raised by a chilly grandfather, young James believed he was incapable of love. As Izzie schemes to persuade James that love is not a weakness, her six siblings, all named after Shakespearean characters, demonstrate their dramatic flair and knack for falling into improper situations. Despite this all too familiar plot, Izzie and her siblings are entertaining as they teach James about the love of a family, friends, and a very determined wife.
