"Rumors and gossip-- the lifeblood of London. When Olivia Bevelstoke is told that her new neighbor may have killed his fiancee, she doesn't believe it for a second, but, still, how can she help spying on him, just to be sure? So she stakes out a spot near her bedroom window, cleverly concealed by curtains, watches, and waits-- and discovers a most intriguing man, who is definitely up to something. Sir Harry Valentine works for the boring branch of the War Office, translating documents vital to national security. He's not a spy, but he's had all the training, and when a gorgeous blonde begins to watch him from her window, he is instantly suspicious. But just when he decides that she's nothing more than an annoyingly nosy debutante, he discovers that she might be engaged to a foreign prince, who might be plotting against England. And when Harry is roped into spying on Olivia, he discovers that he might be falling for her himself" -- from publisher's web site.

Hillarious submitted by poptart887 on August 22, 2011, 8:46am This book is hillarious.
Better Than Average Regency Romance submitted by sdunav on July 25, 2014, 7:10pm Just a sweet, lovely romance. That sounds insipid (and I still don't know what the title's supposed to mean, since it bears little relation to the story), but this was a hugely enjoyable story of two neighbors who see each other through their windows, dislike one another, and then get to know each other better.
