Courting Trouble

Courting Trouble

The Goode Girls, Book 2

by Kerrigan Byrne

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5


Picking up where we left off in A Dark and Stormy Knight, Honoria Goode, Nora to her friends, has been shot by her husband. To save her life, she is disked off to the best surgeon in London, Titus Conlieth, who happens to be her first love!


Soon we are sent back in time to the being of Nora and Titus’s romance, where they meet while he is in service as a coal boy for her household. His quick action and diligence and up saving hNora’s life when she contract Typhus and set him on the path of medicine and puts the wheels in motion for their love and heartbreak.


As I have found with Kerrigan’s work, this is a fast paced story that keeps you riveted and turning pages. I could barely put this book down until the last page! 


This book had a good amount of steam and the character have great chemistry. The mixing of classes is done well and Kerrigan does. Great job depicting the grittier side of London life in contrast to the glittering life of aristocratic London. I also love seeing past characters for the the series showing up throughout the book.



This was a great historical romance that has you rooting for a second chance for Titus and the fallen Nora all the way! With the flashbacks, this can totally be read as a standalone.




Courting Trouble by Kerrigan Byrne is scheduled to release December 8th, 2020.


I received a complimentary copy of this book from Oliver Herberts Books 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! Childhood neighbours, Devlin Ware and Gwyneth Rhys never know the other felt the same attraction and pull towards the other until the stars aligned at the neighbourhood fete and they finally discover their mutual affection… but they were not mean to be young lovers, since family scandal befalls Devin and he is banished from his family home.  White no where to go and a determination to shed his innocence and become a man, he enlist in a foot regiment… and stays away at war ...

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 ...
