From the previous book I got the impression that the next hero would be Cam Rohan and I was rooting for him and Daisy. So when I read on the summary about Matthew Swift, an unknown American, I was disappointed. Also Daisy has been the less impressive wallflower of the four. <br />But the amazing Lisa Kleypas ended the series with a bang!!! Daisy's story became my favorite, even more the one of Lillian and Marcus with their constant bickering. <br />Daisy proved to be a mature young lady who, once set her mind on a goal, would stop to nothing in order to accomplish it. (Even seduce her husband-to-be). I enjoyed every word, every page. </div> <div id="review-like"> <span class='likeItContainer' id='like_container_review_1786134297'><a id="like_count_review_1786134297" rel="nofollow" href="/rating/voters/1786134297?resource_type=Review"><span class="likesCount">45 likes</span></a> · <a rel="nofollow" class="jsLike like_it gr-button gr-button--small" href="https://www.goodreads.com/user/new?remember=true&return_url=%2Freview%2Fshow%3Fid%3D1786134297">Like</a></span> ∙ <a class="flag smallText greyText" rel="nofollow" title="Flag this review as inappropriate." id="flag_link1786134297" href="/flagged/new?resource_id=1786134297&resource_type=Review&return_url=%2Freview%2Fshow%3Fid%3D1786134297">flag</a> </div> <div id="review-follow"> </div> </div></div><div class="big450BoxBottom"></div></div><br class="clear" /> </div> </div> <script type="text/javascript"> if (typeof window.uet == "function") { window.uet("cf");
