Another Book, Another Destiny…
A Shop Girl's Guide to Wooing a Lord was a little different from what I expected. The title suggests a lighter, more playful historical romance, but the story spends a bit of time exploring the harsher realities of poverty in Regency England. Tamsin's life is difficult long before the book begins, and things only become … Continue reading Book Review: A Shop Girl’s Guide to Wooing a Lord
I was really looking forward to reading Second Chance Prince, the third book in Sarah Bennett's Romancing the Dukes historical romance series. This is such a swoon-worthy series, and I was eager to read Roberta’s story and to learn more about Niki. He wasn't the most likable when we first met him in this series, … Continue reading Book Review: Second Chance Prince by Sara Bennett

I have mixed feelings about this story. I'm super bummed because I generally love this author's historical romances, but I didn't love the main characters or the love story. I really disliked how they spoke to each other. They hurled insults and hurtful comments, questioned each other's character, integrity, and more. It was too much … Continue reading Book Review: The Duke’s Got Mail by Samara Parish
I've been loving historical fantasy romances lately, and A Widow’s Charm was so good! The whole premise is so unique and outrageous, and I couldn't wait to find out why Hilde thought the logical solution to her problems was to blackmail her necromancer neighbor into bringing her husband back to life. Hilde and Elmwood are … Continue reading Book Review: A Widow’s Charm by Caitlyn Paxson
This was such an entertaining historical romance and a great addition to the series. The Mary Poppins vibes were so fun! Mina has the same capable, slightly no-nonsense energy as Mary Poppins, and she’s also warm and protective in a way that made me really like her. She’s competent, kind, and quietly brave, especially when … Continue reading Book Review: The Governess’s Guide to Spells and Managing Misfit Marquesses by Amy Rose Bennett
The Scoundrel and the Siren is a fun addition to the Princes of London series. I’ve read a few of Christy Carlyle’s books at this point, and I always tend to enjoy the unique storylines and swoon-worthy love stories, so I was thrilled to get an advanced copy of this book. Dominic and Tess both … Continue reading Book Review: The Scoundrel and the Siren by Christy Carlyle
I really enjoyed this book. It is cozy, whimsical, and romantic, with a nice mix of fantasy and reality. The story pulled me in right away, I think because of the author’s writing style. It's so immersive and easy to visualize, with good pacing and a fun, witty touch in both the narration and dialogue. … Continue reading Book Review: Magic and Mischief at the Wayside Hotel by Elizabeth Everett
