Some days, a girl needs one of those cookie-cutter romance novels. Girl meets guy. Love. Anxiety. Happily-ever-after. For a change, I wasn't looking for a book to keep me intellectually entertained, when I picked-up Joanna Bourne's My Lord and Spymaster. I guessed from the title that the historical romance novel would be of the traditional sort with no surprises. I needed bland today. I've had too much "excitement in my life lately. So, wasn't I surprised when our heroine has a pet ferret in higher-class merry old England? Oh yes, and the ferret saves the day!
