Wow. I've only read a handful of harlequin-josei, and this one -- though it has some cheesy elements -- was really good. This is regency era done right -- a female lead who is unafraid of using her fists and speaking her mind. Fans of English period dramas may like this. It may not be like a Jane Austen / Elizabeth Gaskell work, but it translates pretty well in manga form.

There was a lot of dramatic moments amongst this short series and I think that was what makes Kedakaki Yakusoku different from other Josei mangas. Like a well-laid out novel, every character has an important role to the development of the story and the characters. Definitely a good read if you want something out of the usual.
