You're welcome! And if I haven't said it before, thank you very much for recommending historical romance author Courtney Milan a while ago. I've read her most recent full-length novel & some of her novellas and she's excellent! Really well-rounded, imperfect but admirable heroines and heroes; unusual choices for historical periods within the 19th century; class and gender role consciousness; an ability to include details about setting, atmosphere, and scientific and economic change; and a sense of humor. Some authors really do wonderful things within genre fiction structures & Milan is a great example. Again, thanks for the rec!

You are so welcome; I'm glad you're enjoying Courtney Milan :D She has a new book coming out next month and I can't wait!

I liked The Heiress Effect. I didn't expect the humor and sharp insights into class differences. Nice hero, too.

Good wishes to you and Baby MC & fam for peaceful and happy holidays!
