HR-ML's Reviews > Lieutenant Mayhew's Catastrophes

This was a mostly light-hearted Regency road-trip.

Lt. William "Will" Mayhew met Willemina "Willie"
Culpepper on a public coach. He was a son of a baron
(a non heir) & she, dtr of a late Army Colonel & later
diplomat. She 'followed the drum' & traveled all over
with her late sire.

Will had 2 kittens in a basket for his niece & nephew.
Willie assisted him in their care. After their 30 minute
break to eat, the coach left without them. Then they
encountered nearly every challenge. Willie planned to
meet a diplomat, his wife and daughters and they'd
all sail to Vienna. The longer she knew Will, the less
she thought of her upcoming Vienna job.

I liked these 2 together & don't normally 'buy' the idea
of love at first sight. Both had these traits in common:
flexible, intelligent, thought on their feet, and laughed
at absurd events. The sweet kittens stole scenes and
thankfully survived the trip.
