I love this story. Keep up the good work.

Hey, this is great! I love the detail that you weave effortlessly throughout the story. It's such a great story line, too. The whole thing just flows beautifully.

Hooray for updates! haha you should always listen to your mum!Oh how wonderful it will be for him to go to London and oh it will be just lovely. I hope the dad gets punched in the face. Update soon!

oh my god i am in love with your story! update soon!

Yep, me again. Ah, the plot thickens! I'm a bit confused though. Was Meredith Archer 16 or 22 when he had that affair with Irene?

Do I smell foreshadowing? Intriguing, but how does she know it's a boy? There was no way of testing for it at the time.

You have a great writing style. I've been reading quite a bit of your stories, and reviewing them too, I think.
Just a bit about the shipping business though, it was considered 'trade' and therefore not respectable or genteel from what I can remember, though I may be wrong.

Update soon!

well well well look who decided to go back to ireland. should have done it sooner I think. Stupid men. bah. Good chapter! Update soon!
Liriel

This is going well, update soon

Excellent, Keep up the good work! I can't wait to see what happens next!

Cool. Need more! Even with just two chapters, you have good charater building things going on. I want to know what happens, so update soon!

This is a really good start to the story, and I hope that the rest will be this good. I look forward to reading your future chapters. Update soon!

My my. Brighton's quite the looker, eh? Will he be replacing Mr. Foster as the most eligible bachelor of Regency England? Hehe. I can definitely see it. Mr. British Regency 1839 accepts the award while speaking in his charming Irish brogue. Can't you just see it? Hehehe.
Eight sisters in the Duke's family? I only have two and an obnoxious younger brother. Living in a family of NINE? Holy moly. Well, at least we don't have any "males rock" issues like at my house. *snorts* 'The only one carrying on the family name'. Pfft! On his McDonald's name tag! hehehe. So maybe I'm biased because of that, but this Duke really ticked me off, still wanting a son so badly when he had nine daughters. And thinking women are a bother. Down with Chauvanism! Spread the feminism!
I really want to meet these daughters of his. No. Wait. I want BRIGHTON to meet these daughters. hehehehe. Big families are so much fun to write about.
And you can't stick with one story? Me too! It really stinks sometimes, but I like to have different genres and ages to work with (which makes research for historical stuff a huge pain in my arse!) So no worries about harassment from me on that. hehe. I can totally empathize!
I know you just posted, but I'm loving this, so please update soon!

Woot woot. Anglophobe fiction rocks my socks. haha. just kidding there; worry not. It's just that my friend calls me an anglophobe all the time cuz I wrote a ficcie with an Irish dude who hates the English, and she says I'm the only one with characters like that. *rolls eyes* Glad I've found a partner in crime! hehe. *virtual high five*
But seriously, this was really good so far! Irene's unrealistic expectations were very realistic. hehe. oxymoron. But you know what I mean. A ton of women used to try and get in on the cash in bearing rich men babies. But Irene doesn't seem like that sort of gal. So I like her. But it's really sad how she trusts this git of a duke! Makes me feel bad for her right away, even if she did - well. I think it was rather brilliant of you to get me to pity her right away, cuz I know you trash her next chapter. (Yea, I read the whole thing, but I like to leave a review for every chapter; it's my habit) *kudos to thee*
Well, supper time! Awesome job!

... I can't imagine growing up with EIGHT sisters. I can barely handle one.
I love the name Eloise. I've decided it will be my cat's name when I get one. I don't know how this has anything to do with your story, but I think it's the perfect name for a cat.
Good chapter by the way. I see you went on a posting spree this weekend, I have to go and visit all your other stories now.
Cheers :)
