To Love and to Loathe

To Love and to Loathe


The Regency Vows, Book 2

by Martha Waters


⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5


Diana, Lady Templeton has achieved the dream: she married a wealthy peer in her first season and now just a few years later, she is a widow with all the freedoms that affords. Now all she needs it a lover to complete her perfect life…


In walks her old nemesis, Jeremy, the Marquess of Willingham. These two have been at odds since her first season when she needed to marry and he wanted nothing of the sort. Now he has a proposal for Diana. They have always had a spark between them, so he proposes that they become lovers for the span of his house party. This will let the men know Diana is open to taking a lover now and Jeremy will have Diana help dispel some rumours about his prowess.


In agreement about having a fling, Diana decides to up the anti and try to marry Jeremy off… this becomes troublesome when the fling starts feeling like a lot more…


I enjoyed this enemies to lovers plot a lot more that the plot the first book (marriage in trouble). This book felt more light hearted and the pranks being pulled on each other were more fun  feeling. I liked the spark between Jeremy and Diana and the their shared fear of love and intimacy. These two were a cute pair to watch grow and accept their feelings.





To Love and to Loathe by Martha Waters is scheduled to release April 6th, 2021.


I received a complimentary copy of this book from Atria Books through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
