When a Rogue Meets His Match

Greycourt Series, Book 2

by Elizabeth Hoyt

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5


There is no other author that totally envelops me in their world as fast as Elizabeth Hoyt. She makes Georgian London come to life from the dregs of society to the highest peer!


Raised in the gutters of St. Giles, Gidieon Hawthorne is just as ambitious as he is ruthless! He has elevated himself up from the streets to now holding a position for a Duke and owning his own respectable manse. Now all he needs to do is find a way to get an in to society and it appears the the lovely Messalina Greycourt, nice to his employer is his ticket.


After finding out that her uncle has promised her to his henchman, Mr. Hawthorne, Messalina takes her future Ito her own hands by crafting her own deal with the devil, her soon to be husband, that will see to her receiving half her dowery after a month of marriage and thus a way to escape!


Soon after their marriage these two nemesis find that they work better as a team than as advisories… but Messy still plans to leave at the end of the month and Gideon’s lies and inability to love may be the thing that finally pushes her out the door!


Oh my! This marriage of convenience/ enemies to lovers/ class difference romance was perfect! I loved every minute of reading this book and my emotions were definitely put through the wringer!



Elizabeth Hoyt is one of my all time favourite historical romance authors and this books has not let me down! I am already eagerly awaiting the next instalment in the Greycourt series!!!




When a Rogue Meets His Match by Elizabeth Hoyt is scheduled to release December 1st, 2020.

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 ...

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.
