Starstruck by Regina Scott

Make A Wish…

Cassie Bentbrooke has no interest in the ton. The daughter of a noted astronomer, she is content with studying the heavens through her father's telescopes—especially since his academic success has not provided much by way of wealth. But Cassie's ward Liza Kearney longs for the magic of one Season…and Cassie is determined to give it to her.

Easier said than done. For Cassie's brother has returned from the Continent to claim his inheritance, and handle the meager purse strings. And privateer Devon Sebastien has arrived in London with his own agenda—recovering the jewels his uncle hid in the Bentbrooke home during the Terror. Fulfilling Liza's dreams may be possible, but Cassie soon realizes that guarding her own heart from a certain devilishly handsome Frenchman may not be—and that love will blaze a trail through her life brighter than any comet in the dark night sky… .

RRAH's THOUGHTS AND PONDERINGS:

STARSTRUCK is an enjoyable, quick read. Cassie is NOT your typical Regency heroine and the star of STARSTRUCK. At 27 and an aspiring astronomer, she's dedicated to finishing her father's work on the Great Comet. I never could truly like the hero, Devon, for he was too selfish and focused on his wants. The plot is predictable, but I still found lots to like about this book.
