Wild, Wild Rake

Wild, Wild Rake

The Cavensham Heiresses

by Janna MacGregor

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5

This is a wonderful ugly duckling story! Poor Lady Avalon Warwyk is married married to a man who doesn’t even like her for her parents and husbands gain. Thankfully first husbands don’t live for ever! After she was banished to the country estate his her son, Lady Avalon devoted her like to the community and women needing an escape from terrible situations. She finds peace and contentment in her community and good deeds. She barely noticing her quiet and somewhat lonely existence with all of her activity.

Can a vicar be a rake??? Well, the handsome and charming Devan Farris sure has the reputation of a rake… even is its not true. But what harm can come from the reputation of being a ladies man if it keeps all the ladies his brother tries to match him up with at bay? Well, for one, when you finally do find your one and only can she ever trust you after your lies by omission?

Avalon and Devan are a perfect pairing and it was a lot of fun watching them come together (trough some outside influences) and find a way to trust and love each other. I am a big fan of a good second chance romance, and Avalons tale is definitely that! Devan is a Devan as the virgin vicar was  book boyfriend material. This story also had plenty of twists and turns that kept me on my toes, but didn’t leave me over stressed. All in all this was a great read, and I highly recommend it!

Wild, Wild Rake by Janna MacGregor is scheduled to release February 25th, 2020.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from St. Martin’s Press through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Remember Love

Remember Love Ravenswood series, Book 1 by Mary Balogh ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Historical romance queen, Mary Balogh introduces us to another brilliant extended family and reminds up to remember love in one swoop with this series opener! First off, this epic second chance romance gave me pure romantic chills that were remittent to reading Jane Austen’s Persuasion. Her beautiful storytelling and detailed descriptions and character building really immersed me into this story and made me root for second chances and love!

White Knight Needed

White Knight Needed Reluctant Heroes, Book 2 by Betina Krahn ⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Barclay Howard is bigger and burlier than your average gentleman… and thus he has found himself to be somewhat of an antidote to the fairer sex. As a result he is more often found behind the pages of his Ivanhoe novel than out and about attempting to court a fair lady. But when his path crosses with down on her luck Norah Capshaw, his white knight complex rises up to make him go above and beyond again and again to be her hero… even though she is incredibly reluctant to the idea! This was a fun adventure romance filled with roadside hijinks, and a family mystery. Barclay was a perfect hero in this book. He was always there offering support and rescue to Norah. On the other side Norah’s resistance of Barclay and his efforts was the only wet blanket on this otherwise delightfully sweet romance!   Overall, this is my second Betina Kran book and I find her writing very light hearted and action packed.

A Duke for Miss Townsbridge

A Duke for Miss Townsbridge The Townsbridges, Book 4 by Sophie Barnes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Sophie Barnes is a master at the novella! Every time I read one of her novellas, it is just perfect! Characters that are developed and graphics you, quick flowing plots to move the story and an ending to delight! As a duke, Matthew believes he should be able to marry anyone he decides on… and he decides that the perfect bride to fit into his unconventional life is his neighbour, Sarah. Since Sarah has never even met Mathew before his proposal, she decides that a courtship is needed before she make up her mind! I was was immediately invested in the non-traditional courtship between nearly on the shelf Sarah, and her reclusive duke for a neighbour Matthew. The determination and genuine personalities of both characters carries this book off effortlessly and would leave me wanting for more if the story had not been finished up so neatly! I adore a good romance novella and liken it to the perfect bite ...
