Her characters are complex, and the emotional conflict is believable. The Historical Novel Society said Thomas "created a delightful story with a well-developed plot, balanced with the right amount of historical detail. The results are steamy and smart." Publishers Weekly went on to name it one of the best books of 2008, saying, "Deft plotting and sparkling characterization mark this superior debut historical romance." Intelligent and forthright with honorable hidden qualities, Lady Tremaine makes an exceptional heroine, and her deceptions are believably attributed to a desire for self-preservation in a sexist society. Publishers Weekly gave it a starred review saying, "Thomas propels the plot forward with revealing repartee and gives the leads real nuance. Love has designs of its own.,To all of London society, Lord and Lady Tremaine had the ideal arrangement: a marriage based on civility, courteousness. Private Arrangement won the Romantic Times Reviewers' Choice Award - Best Historical in 2008. Private Arrangements is the debut historical romance by Sherry Thomas.
