Read the madness of lord ian mackenzie5/12/2023 I also liked that she showed his frustration with himself because he can't help doing some things a certain way. He was smart and endearing and sometimes frustrating, but still a sexy, swoon-worthy hero. Also, sometimes I'm scared to read them because if it isn't portrayed accurately or respectfully, I get annoyed. I'm happy to say that Jennifer Ashley did a splendid job with Lord Ian's portrayal as a high-functioning Aspie. So I'm always curious to read stories when that's portrayed. The hero has Asperger Syndrome (though it isn't defined as such within the story because, in those times, they would've just thought the person was mad.) My son is on the spectrum and leans closest to Asperger's. I know why I bought it in the first place-besides the recs. Then I saw people mentioning last week that it was on sale again and Dear Author raved about it, so I dug it out the pile on my Kindle. Amazon shows that I bought this book on a sale in October of 2013, but I never read it. That's the case for The Madness of Lord Ian Mackenzie. You ever have a book that you buy because someone recommended it, but then you forget about it and it sits on your shelf or on your e-reader forever? I have so many of those, so sometimes it takes not just one or two mentions of a book, but repeated, beat-me-over-the-head mentions to get me to pick it up.
