Undercover Duke


Duke Dynasty, Book 4

by Sabrina Jeffries

⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5


In the last book of the Duke Dynasty series, we start to heavily get into the mystery of the deceased husbands of the family matriarch, the Dowager Duchess. In Undercover Duke we are in full blown mystery mode!


Sheridan has been heavily affected by the strange deaths within his family and he is taking the lead to get to the bottom if it… too bad that his investigation is going to make his get pretty cozy with the frivolous Vanessa, his brother’s cousin, in order to find out what her mother can tell them about some key events in the mystery timeframe.


Vanessa Pryde doesn’t know why Sheridan is finally paying attention to her, but she will do anything to keep it up! She has loved him since they met, but the feelings has seemed completely one sided until now. Using the idea that she is trying to get another suiters up to scruff, she and Sheridan hatch a deal to start a fake courtship…


Soon the lines between fake and real are blurred and a real marriage ensues! Now as part of the family, Vanessa is in danger and Sheridan and her need to come out with all their secrets for her safety and in order to make this marriage work!


I am a sucker for a good fake dating plot, and this one where both parties have their own secret agenda was really fun to see play out. The chemistry and attraction between These two really explodes and I didn’t expect that form up tight Sheridan! Very hot! 


Another great thing about these characters is that they start off with very skewed perspectives of each other, as they continue to interact and the relationship develops, it was really sweet to see the or true selves revealed and appreciated by each other. As their true selfs, Sheridan and Vanessa make. Perfect pairing- thankfully this investigation brought them together to see just that!


Also, we finally resolve the mystery of the murdered husbands and relatives! I wound give it away, but I liked how it turned out.


This book had plenty of continuing aspect, like the mystery and the family dynamics, but I feel that Sabrina Jeffries gave enough back story for those wanting to jump into the Duke Dynasty at this book.



Undercover Duke by Sabrina Jeffries is scheduled to release May 25th, 2021.

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!  Ellie-Ma
