Opposites Attract Romance. Lady Anne is a risk taker with her ballooning, scandalous for the time ballooning attire, inventions, and confrontations with her enemy and biggest competitor the underhanded Mr. Davis. As an actuary, Benedict calculates his decisions to minimize his risk and lets fear rule his life. Lady Anne falls into his orderly life and stirs things up. I was surprised he was willing to go up in a balloon with her and risk his heart and a potential pregnancy, but she makes him see life is so much better when you take some risks. I enjoyed reading about ballooning and Anne’s inventions. It made me want to try a flight sometime. I liked Benedicts rakish friend Lord Randolph and I’m looking forward to his romance.

Up and Away!. Anne is the daughter of an Earl who loves science and piloting her hot-air balloon. Benedict is a Viscount and former soldier, now an actuary. Due to a mistake and accident in the war, he is obsessed with analyzing risks. They have a common nemesis in a newspaper reporter who was also an officer in the war with Benedict. Anne and Benedict are absolutely opposites that attract, but as so often happens they complement each other and fit together perfectly. This really a fun story. The characters are interesting. I love the banter between Anne and Benedict. The story is well done and exciting. I was right there with him when Benedict took his first balloon ride. A good read. I recommend it. I received and ARC of this book via BookSprout. My review is voluntary.
