Her Wicked Marquess

The Sinful Wallflowers Series, Book 2

by Stacy Reid

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5

When bookish Maryann Fitzwilliam finds out her father has promised her to a boorish, womanizer whom is her father’s compatriot, she decides that she would rather be ruined that married and miserable.

Without the means to ruin herself in truth, she plans to place a few well placed hints at her ruination with the notorious rake hell, the Marquess of Rothbury, where the busiest of gossips will find.

Her plan of ruination goes off splendidly… until she comes face to face with the vary rake she accuses of having an illicit tryst with … in her very own bedroom!?!?

Nicolas St. Ives, the Marquess of Rothbury has cultivated his rake persona in order to exact revenge for a wrong he didn’t prevent… now a young wallflower has insinuated that they have had a tryst. He is compelled to meet this woman and soon finds that she is much more than the ton has given her credit for.

Soon Maryann and Rothbury find themselves helping each other in order to for each of them to meet their goal, freedom from society for Maryann and vengeance for Rothbury.

This was another captivating tale from author Stacy Reid. These wallflowers are daring and outgoing… the tom doesn’t know what they are missing! I could not put this down!

The angsty Rothbury is a broken hero after my own heart! Definitely book boyfriend material!

I look forward to the next wallflowers adventure!

While this book is the second in the Sinful Wallflowers series, this holds up strong as a standalone. I have read the previous book, My Darling Duke, and feel that while also an excellent book as well, you don’t have to read it before diving into this book.

Her Wicked Marquess by Stacy Reid is scheduled to release December 29th, 2020.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Entangled Publishing. 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 author, has written this novel in verse and the flow of the writing really goes with and helps tell the story. 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. Ellie-May is no stranger to public scorn, as the daughter of an outlaw , she knows what the Rangers accusations against her deceased husband will do to her family and children. For the sake of her family, she will do anything to protect them and that includes keeping secrets and resisting the Rangers charms! This was fun story. I loved how the romance also included the children because as a mother myself (happily married) I could never imagine being able to separate my love life from that of my family life. 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...
