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.
