1: An easy way to pass weekend
I probably would not remember the characters from this book next week, but as a way to pass a weekend, this book will do. It has a plot that's easy to follow, but I really don't see what the next book could be about. There were no real second characters developing in this book. I love reading books with connected plots and I usually know which book is from which series, but I don't think I will be looking for the next one of this series specifically. I guess, if I see it, I will get it.
My advice, if there are other books on your bookshelf waiting to be read, read them first. Save this one for a lay-over at the airport or something.

2: Good lighter read!
Every once in awhile I am in the mood for a lighter read - not so much intensity and drama. This book was one of those. The characters were easy to connect with and you felt the love between Luke and Pearl - which is very important for me a hopeless romantic!!Will be interesting to see how the other books in the series hold up?

3: WONDERFUL, but only one in series worth reading
This book was a quick read, since the characters and plot were so nicely written. Pearl and Luke are two people who are perfect for each other and yet, due to stations in life, can never be together. I found Pearl so endearing and her passion about helping others is so contagious. Luke is someone who has suffered and yet risen to help others suffering. Both were easy to love and made this book a keeper. Unfortunately, the following books of the series drag endlessly and are not worth the time. So only read this book if you can restrain yourself from wondering what happens to Luke's best friend. I will save you the effort: think same exact plot but with no twists and undeveloped characters.

4: This is a wonderful story
Ms Hiatt has written a wonderfully original story that will hold your attention. I read about 4 books a week so the ones like this keep coming back to memory. Luke and Pearl play off each other wonderfully. These two people obivously belong together. I like the way Pearl almost literally drags Luke to his hertige.

5: Likable twist on the Robin Hood premise.
Lady Pearl Moreston is sick of her stepmother pressuring her to marrying before her 21st birthday. When she overhears that lady plotting a trap to enforce a betrothal, she decides on a radical plan: escape by becoming a servant.... This social reformer also wants a perspective on the life of a commoner. Pearl and her abigail work in the kitchens at a society party. When she is in danger of being recognized, she flees the scene in the company of Luke St. Clair. Luke is an intriguing person. His lodgings, though in the dangerous Seven Dials, are elegantly furnished. He is the Saint of Seven Dials, robbing the rich and giving much of the proceeds to the poor. They both have surprises in store, as Pearl investigates Luke's mysterious past and finds the astonishing truth....
