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.

The Art of Taxidermy

by    Sharon Kernot I didn’t know what I was getting when I picked out this book. When I first opened this book and started to read, I was pleasantly surprised.

The Art of Taxidermy tells a gripping and emotional story about love of family and great loss. The themes are woven through the coming of age of young Lottie, along with her immigrant family in Australia after the second world war. I was taken in by this book from the first page and was made to feel deeply for Lottie and this family. Sharon Kernot has written a beautiful book and I can not highly recommend it enough. This is a must read. The Art of Taxidermy by Sharon Kernot is due to release August 23rd, 2019. I received a complimentary copy of this book from the Text Publishing Company through NetGalley.

The Outlaw's Daughter

The Outlaw’s Daughter Haywire Bride Series #3 by Margaret Brownley ⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 A year old stage robbery has brought Texas Ranger, Matt Taggert to the small town of Haywire. While investigating his lead he he discovers that his prime suspect died just days after the stage coach robbery and is the tow’s local hero… not only that, he has left behind a beautiful widow and 2 children.

A new partner would definitely need to win over the kids along with me!  ...

Here to Stay

Here to Stay by Adriana Herrara ⭐⭐⭐ /5 Adrianna Herraara has a remarkable way of capturing the personality and spirit of her New Yorker characters… even when they aren’t in their native New York! The friendships created and the corresponding camaraderie are what stood out to me the most in this book. It was fun to watch these ex-pat New Yorkers come together in their new home and bond. As for the romance, I found it a bit forced. Julia is on a dating sabbatical and not looking for a man… Rocco is only in Dallas working fro the men trying to cut funding and close Julia’s charitable foundation that she works for. These two should be enemies, but they are friends… the tension between them is pretty high, but they both know they are on opposite sides… I found it unsatisfying… size they were workplace enemies, their friendship muddied the waters. I found it hard to get behind their romance. On another side, I really enjoyed the representation of the charitabl...
