4.5/5.0 - and I'm stuck right in the middle as whether to bump it or not...The 5 star argument:
This is an incredibly well written, engaging, lovely story that is almost impossible to put down. Josette's character can be completely infuriating while still managing to be endearing. All the characters are fleshed out so well that even when they are behaving badly, the reader can understand and sympathize with them. Ms. Thorne has also done an exquisite job of creating extreme sexual tension without stooping to graphics. It's completely clean but stirs up enough heat in the telling that those who like steam would not be disappointed.
The 4 star argument:
(My publisher's voice screams in my head) "Never give 5 stars to a plot line that isn't original! The storyline in "Josette" is so closely reminiscent of "Pride and Prejudice" that one can almost guess what will happen next, and most assuredly predict the major conflict and resolution of the H/h long before the ending. Although not exact, the cast and design are close enough to suffer constant comparisons while reading.
Georgetet Heyer and Jane Austing fans, this is definitely a must read book! The fact that it comes so close to Regency perfection ends up trumping even those nay-saying voices in my head :D

Josette Danielle Thorne 9781936167319 Books Reviews
If you are a fan of Jane Austen and Regency Romance you will be smitten by Josette. The tension between the characters and fast paced plot made it an outstanding pick. A cross between Pride and Prejudice and Sense and Sensibility, the story captures two sisters in the season of their most important decisions. Sprinkled with deception, intrigue, and slow building romance, Josette was all I hoped for and more. I would recommend it with our highest rating to all readers as it's the best Regency romance I've read yet.
A new Regency author has hit cyberspace! Wow, wow, wow is all I can say about this delightful book from Ms. Thorne. Throughout the pages I caught glimpses of Sense and Sensibility and Pride and Prejudice combined, yet this story is unique in its own right.
I swoon over Captain Carter (oh boy, is he a hunk). I love how Ms. Thorne details his "manliness" from his "iron chest" to his dress, and to the tantalizing scent he carries.
Josette is willful, too opinionated for her own good, and she jumps to conclusions prematurely. This causes no end of the angst for our Captain Carter. (did I mention he is a 12 on a scale of 1 - 10?)
There were a few moments when I laughed out loud, when I wanted to throttle Josette, when I sighed over Carter, when I growled at Edward, and when I rolled my eyes at Amy. But, believe me, during it all I could see the movie adaptation. Oh yes, I could, and a screen writer needs to snap this story up pronto!
Wonderful book, Ms. Thorne, and I can't wait for you to delight us again with another sweet tale. I toss my bonnet to you. )
Captain Carter has just informed Miss Josette Price that her dear brother, George, has died overseas. Her family is devastated by the news since George was the future heir to Beddingfield Park. The estate will soon pass to her cousin Edward. Josette must now choose her own path by either finding love or allowing her younger sister to marry Edward so they can keep living in their beloved estate. Soon Josette falsely accuses Captain Carter and heads to London with his aunt, Lady Berclair.
Many scenes were reminiscent of Austen's Pride and Prejudice. Josette and a few other characters had a nice depth to them. I really wished the author would have included some of the hero's thoughts into the book. They have so little interaction together I was surprised Josette fell in love with him so quickly.
Clean Regency romance.
I really enjoyed this book. When I finished this book I was sad because it was over. Thorne has a way of making her characters relatable. I hope Danielle Thorne writes more regency!
In Josette, Thorne crafts a tale rich in lyrical language, old fashioned romance, and intriguing characters. The style, reminiscent of Jane Austen, transports the reader to a simpler, more romantic era. Readers will enjoy following Josette's journey from losing her beloved brother to losing her heart.
I really enjoyed this one, Josette is a fun character who completely captivates Captain Carter. I kept turning pages anxious for them to be together. This is a sweet, clean Austen-style regency romance.
This makes the fifth Regency novel I've read, counting two by Jane Austen Pride and Prejudice and Emma. Ms. Thorne's, Josette is not one whit behind the other four novels I've read.
She is well versed on the dress and customs of the Regency period. Her characters, even the minor ones, are well developed. Josette and Captain Carter form the heart of the novel and right away we see the attraction between the two, albeit subdued at first. The death of Josette's brother brings a great deal of stress for the family, thus giving a very interesting storyline. You will find sadness, humor, happiness and the list goes on. I highly recommend Josette and I believe once you've started reading it, you will not want to put it down.
4.5/5.0 - and I'm stuck right in the middle as whether to bump it or not...
