Not quite a 4, but rounded up.
I enjoyed this book; it was quite charming and good natured, but I admit it was a little more... seks-yoo-ull... than I had anticipated. It was an almost incongruous blend of the tone and structure of twee Brit dramas like Lark Rise to Candleford and the sex scenes from Queer As Folk. I admit, I blushed! A lot! I'm not entirely convinced that those wildly different flavors quite hung together properly, and I feel like a few emotional beats were ruined by shoehorning in some rudey bits unnecessarily.
But it was fun and sweet, the writing was pleasant if a little contrived, and it all tied up nicely. So, there you have it. I would definitely read more from this author, though my preference would be more toward the Lark Rise end of the scale.
