Eva, an independent photographer and headstrong lady in 19th century England, is convinced that she doesn't have time for romance. But when her friend Nathaniel, invites her to his mother's house party- the lines between friendship and courting become blurry. On top of their budding romance, a dangerous criminal lurks in the shadows...making all the guests uneasy. Caught between mystery and intrigue Eva will have to discover what she really wants.

I really like the author, Nancy Campbell Allen- she is very good at writing light, clean romances that I appreciate. This Proper Romance book is a nice, easy read, perfect for summer on a beach. I like that I can read this book and take it as it is. Does it have an amazing plot and characters? No, it does not. But it is a dessert book, a book you indulge in every once and a while, to give your brain a break.
