Love in the Afternoon continues the Hathaways series by Victorian romance author Lisa Kleypas.

As a lover of animals and nature, Beatrix Hathaway has always been more comfortable outdoors than in the ballroom. Even though she participated in the London season in the past, the classic beauty and free-spirited Beatrix has never been swept away or seriously courted…and she has resigned herself to the fate of never finding love. Has the time come for the most unconventional of the Hathaway sisters to settle for an ordinary man—just to avoid spinsterhood?

Captain Christopher Phelan is a handsome, daring soldier who plans to marry Beatrix's friend, the vivacious flirt Prudence Mercer, when he returns from fighting abroad. But, as he explains in his letters to Pru, life on the battlefield has darkened his soul—and it's becoming clear that Christopher won't come back as the same man. When Beatrix learns of Pru's disappointment, she decides to help by concocting Pru's letters to Christopher for her. Soon the correspondence between Beatrix and Christopher develops into something fulfilling and deep…and when Christopher comes home, he's determined to claim the woman he loves. What began as Beatrix's innocent deception has resulted in the agony of unfulfilled love—and a passion that can't be denied…

Fun, but. I have to agree, starts strong, but the author seemed to tire of the characters, and it was a little flatter than the rest of the series. some plot opportunities seemed missed. Still readable, but not the best.

CrownPrincess

Awesome book!. I couldn't put this book down! Great writing from Ms. Kleypas. You won't be sorry you bought this.

Last Hathaway book.. I’m sort of sad to leave the family behind. I highly recommend this series. Start at the beginning though. I hope you like them as well as I do.

HatesToRead

Page Turner. This novel captured me from the beginning. I am notorious for buying books and never reading them. This one was fabulous, cover to cover; it is the first book I have finished reading in five years.

Worth a read. Not the strongest of her books in this series or her others but still worth the read! V.L.L-Book Lover

M S Calderon

Lovely beginning. I loved the first half of the story - or I’d say 70% of the book. It was enthralling, well-written and I was consumed with knowing what came next. For that, I’d give the book 4 stars. The rest of the book wasn’t bad, but there was no tension — nothing to look out for, just the learning and evolution of the relationship. Don’t get me wrong, I love that I got to see the relationship moving along, but in contrast to the first chunk of the book, the ending fell short

Maddy 1

Funny, romantic and a definite buy!. I absolutely fell in love with this book the more I read. It's not only romantic but very smart and funny. A must read!

PunyIAm

Bravo!. I read the series. I definitely enjoyed. Three reasons I loved this series: 1) Miss Kleybas marries the heroine and hero before the end of the book; 2) The Family is just plain lovable; 3) Danger/mystery is part of the plot! Clapping my hands! The one reason I hated the series is that it ended!

Love in the Afternoon. Good book I love this series I love all of Lisa's books hard to put down.

Megalard

Love in the afternoon. Loves it!!! Finally a great story, great romance without having to live through a tragedy!! It just builds happier and happier. None of that "what if, I don't believe this". Strong characters people you like. No one outshines the other. Amazing!! And only 1 or 2 "throttles" in the book. Throttle, loins and boneless are the bane of romance novels.

Roxicodone

Beatrix and Christopher. The last grown Hathaway to fall in love, Beatrix finds a sweet but tortured hero to do so with, Captain Christopher Phelan. I liked this book as a whole, liked the dialogue and romance, but the ending dragged which was disappointing. Still, it was fun to read about Beatrix and her animals--and the man who would be able to love her and them.

JadetheReader

Half and half. The first half is good, but the second half feels like it was written to fill the rest of the pages.
