    I thought this was fun, funny, and sweet. It had romance but it wasn't excessively steamy. It hit that good middle ground of plot of a steam. Which I appreciated immensely.

    Audrey Hepburn’s Roman Holiday with the ending I hoped for!

    Well, this was the most disappointing Maya Rodale novel that I've ever read. This second book in the Cavendish family series was tedious and lacked the characteristic wit and charm that I've come to associate with Rodale's usually well-written historical romances.Lady Amelia Cavendish, the heroine of "Chasing Lady Amelia," was first introduced in "Lady Bridget's Diary," #1 in this series. In that book, Amelia had disappeared for a day before returning to her family, not sharing a single detail of where she'd been or what she'd done during her time of disappearance. Knowing that "Chasing Lady Amelia" was going to fill in this gap, I was eager to hear Amelia's story. How disappointing, then, to read about Amelia's day and realize that it was just going to go on and on. I don't want to include any spoilers, so I will just say that I was bored with the entire storyline, and the chemistry between Amelia and the hero was lacking.I hope that #3 in this series, "Lady Claire Is All That," will be much better. I'm still willing to give Rodale's books a chance because I've ready many of her books and always been entertained and charmed. I'm going to call "Chasing Lady Amelia" an anomaly, and hope for the best for Rodale's future books.

    3.5/4 Stars | Hot SteamHaving met and adored Amelia in Maya Rodale’s sublime LADY BRIDGET’S DIARY, I couldn’t wait to discover all of the luscious details of what exactly happened during the brief time that she had run away. And, though not as page-turningly perfect as I found Bridget’s story to be, Amelia’s whirlwind adventure is a fun and frisky tale filled with charm, sunny thrills, and moments of toe-curling passion. This second novel in the series delivers a pleasing Regency London spin on the 1953 classic, ROMAN HOLIDAY, reimagining various famous scenes from the film—making the familiar fresh and decidedly sexier than the original—to my great delight! But, as much as I loved that movie—Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn are unforgettable—I found that this novel truly began to sparkle when it fully diverged from the film's plot and led the couple and the reader into the unpredictable and deliciously angsty waters of morning-after heartbreak, scandal, and betrayal. Such yummy stuff! Of course, after some very heated conversations, a few stolen kisses, and a whole lot of forgiveness, Amelia and Alistair get the blissful happily ever after that I craved, and they rightfully deserved. :)Cheerfully written, playful, and nicely sensual, this romantic romp makes a great afternoon escape!
