Yeah, I thought that was weird, too.

And who’s Tyler? Sounds like the bitter ex.

“…didn’t intend on true love…” Well, then you just shouldn’t have been born into a romance novel, should you, Adrian? BAD LOVE YOU!
And WTF happened to Jeanette? Does she not know you can choose to NOT marry someone?
Oh, the intrigue!
How hot is the Duke dude that Violet is willing to marry him against his will without any preparation mere minutes after her sister gets cold feet?
Oh, the drama!

Yeah, pretty sure there is no Sariah who really married a Lehi. This has gotta be a joke.

I actually really like that romance novel!! It was fairly decent and entertaining.

As a guilty regency romance reader, your comment made me choke on my crumpets! But you forgot the governesses. The unconventionally beautiful governesses who tend the children of the dukes, only to later, to a woman, become their step-mamas.

I think the “Lehi” is a reference to the Book of Mormon. The prophet Lehi was married to a woman named Sariah.

Every man is a duke when it comes to regency romance. Or a duke in disguise, or the lesser son of a duke. If you only had romance novels to go on one might think that the entire population of England at the time consisted of hundreds of dukes, several nice virginal courtesans, a whole lot of unconventional beauties just settling for a life of spinsterhood and the people that made their clothing.

Thanks Ferd,
I did google it….that’s one laff riot and a half.
I also liked the Rocky Rococo pinata and special-day Ronald McDonald “collectible item” in the Other Regretsy posts you might like section.

P.S. Costa Rica has tons of good coffee, but not much in the way of decaf.
I’ll use what tech we have here and experiment with upping the rum.
Hopefully it won’t throw me into trans-paradoxical territory.

That just made me laugh out loud … and also feel bad about my gender normative comment.

I’m thinking it’s the fact that he has a penis.

It took me a minute to figure out that this wasn’t comment spam, and is actually an extremely entertaining post! Well done, “Ms. Warren”!

I'm not going to rage like ty (who seems to have that covered — decaf, man!), but I will say that frustration with most of my latest comments (which happened to contain links) getting stuck in moderation limbo has been a major contributor to my recent P-AN apathy, and resulting comment silence. And while, looking back now, I see that the limbo'd comments were eventually put through, I also see that they were all-but-ignored in the popularity contest. This lends weight to my theory that the mod delay interrupts the flow, and renders those comments "too little, too late". Plus, didn't I take the time to become a registered user here for a reason? "Too little, too late" is just one theory, of course. It could certainly be the case that my comments were ignored because they simply weren't funny. But I can't see how that could possibly be true — "Hillbilly Bajingo Wash" is clearly fucking hilarious! (I'd post a link, but... well... you know. Google the phrase. You won't regretsy it! ...And that's a frickin' partner site, ferchrissake!! *sigh* OK, on second thought maybe I'll rage a little. But not like ty.)
