Book Review: Runaway Heart by Claudy Conn

Title: Runaway Heart

Author: Claudy Conn

Release Date: September 24th 2012

Age: Adult

Spirited Chelsea decided she’d sooner run away to London than return to her vain and selfish guardian, Aunt Augusta.

But in her wildest dreams, she never imagined her dear godmother would arrange a Season—or convince the ton’s most eligible bachelor to take her under his wing.

Lord Wainwright was a handsome rogue who was not interested in coy games and missish airs. He expected a country mouse with no polish, but instead he found a thoroughly engaging minx, and was oddly irritated by all the male attention she received.

Chelsea with her unspoiled eye saw beyond Wainwright’s pursuit of hedonism to the intriguing man underneath. But to her shock, it appeared his heart belonged to her horrid Aunt Augusta!

I downloaded Runaway Heart free from Amazon (I think it's still free), and it was a nice surprise!

Chelsea is a spirited young lady, who has been forgotten by her guardian Aunt Augusta, and she won't take it anymore. She decided to run away to London with her best friend, but she never thought she her godmother would take her under her wing and arrange a Season for her.

Chelsea starts as a very naive girl but soon learns to flirt, and Lord Wainwright, her godmother's nephew, helps her to find her way in the society. She's intrigued by him, and he, who of course is not interested in love, can't stop thinking about this young woman.

Runaway Heart is a sweet love story, very dramatic in the end with a not very surprising kidnapping. But still, I really enjoyed it, it was fun to see Chelsea grow up and this cute couple to fall in love.
