thank you so much for your review!
I really liked the prologue here - this is a story you should definately continue with. Your first line and paragraph are excellent - i can easily see this getting published. I'm starting to get flashbacks to Tess of the D'Ubervilles here... might be a good book to take a look at for ideas/lower-middle class life, though it might be a few decades past your time period.
looking forward to hearing more about rebecca. that angelic young lord seems a bit suspicious to me...

Great beginning. The story is interesting and well written, in fact the language is in keeping with a story written in that time period, which makes it read really well. I will look forward to reading some more.

lovely chapter.
um, I'm not absolutely positive about this, but I always thought that the younger son of an Earl, if he was a Viscount, was the Viscount of something, not Viscount father's-title.
Once again, just a thought.
update soon! (:

Very cool beginning. You've set the scene really well. Already you've got a great conflict set up... class differences: different ideas, different outlooks etc. It's a fantastic idea. I'm not so used to seeing historical fiction done on this website (done well, anyways) and I'm looking forward to seeing how this one turns out.
Cheers :)

O! I like this so far! It sounds quite intriguing...and the title is fabulous! Very interesting...I love this already and can't wait to see what unfolds. Plus, I'm a sucker for anything regency, so I'll definately be coming back! Update soon!
