Man of My Dreams by Johanna Lindsey
4.0
I really enjoyed this story. I read it years ago and decided to come back to it and see if I would like it as much. It really held up for me. Megan is an adorable heroine. Beautiful and sweet, very likeable. Devlin is a little jerky, but not too much to be off-putting. Just the right amount of jerkiness to make him interesting.
Devlin is a duke who recently called off his engagement when he caught his fiancee cheating. Then his best friend's sister claims he got her pregnant in order to push him to marry her. He refuses, and he goes off to the middle of nowhere to hide from his friend. He plays the part of a horse breeder and is "employed" by Megan's father. Of course, the two are attracted to each other, and the book revolves around how they get together.
The story is sweet. The drama level is small, but all the arguments feel believable and understandable (I hate when authors make their heroines freak out over insignificant things just to get some drama going). The book is less steamy than Lindsay's other romances - the sex scenes are only like page each. But I think the relationship building is done well enough that even if you prefer a sexier regency-romance book, you'll still enjoy this one.
