I really felt for the family. The author did a great job of describing the interpersonal relationships within the family amidst the chaos. I wish the ending was not so abrupt.

This book made me nostalgic for being young and adventurous. What seems like an ordinary family dynamic takes lots of twists and turns. It's an easy read that definitely kept my interest. The title may as well have been, "It's Not What You Think."  Interesting characters and not a dull moment.

I was not sure when I started reading but was drawn to the quirky and delightful characters.  The family dynamics were fun and easily found relatable.  I can't wait to read the next in the series.

I wasn't sure I was going to like it. A bit slow in the beginning but then I couldn't put it done. I felt I was part of the family.

This was a great summer read. I liked the characters and family dynamics were very entertaining. Pride does get in the way, sometimes. It really messes up relationships. I'm glad love won this time.

What a way of putting a dysfunctional family of perfectly different personality together.

Liked the way the relationships were illustrated and the struggle that the whole family went through and how they resolved it.  Maybe too much on the specific game which in my opinion could have been avoided.

I really liked the family relationships being priority. I liked the drama and the anticipation of getting the bad guy. I liked seeing that woman can still be presented as a virgin without shame. I wish I could read the series but don't have the money to follow through. A good book.

I enjoyed reading this book. Family problems similar to these anyone can empathize with the tangled we of family. I enjoyed the speed of action, it did not lag. But I think an epilogue or a more conclusive ending would have improved it.

Having lived through something very similar to this I could really relate to this story. It really is sad the wasted family time that can be caused by silly family feuds-most of which are over silly things. Enjoyable fun read.

The Duke of Belcraven discovers he has a "bastard" daughter, his "son" and heir is not his son but his wife's from an affair she had while he was away.  The PLOT - force the "daughter" to marry the "heir" so their offspring will carry the de Vaux bloodline.  Very important to have that pure bloodline.  Of course these 2 resent being "blackmailed" into marriage and there are many relationship ups and downs and then some real fun surprises and all's well that ends well.  I enjoyed the story even if I found some of the relationship issues to be a bit more difficult than it needed to be, but that's author's license.  I recommend this book as a fast, fun read with some heartfelt family resolutions.

I liked the way the book was written and the way she made one feel they were with the family.
