Strict Confidence

The Rochester Trilogy, Book #2

by Skye Warren

⭐⭐⭐⭐/5

Skye Warrens’s dark romance retelling of the classic Jane Eyre continues in Strict Confidence, the second book of the trilogy.

We pick up with Jane Mendoza and Beau Rochester still dancing around the truth with each other, as they both try to keep this fledgling family unit they have created safe from seen and unseen dangers. They might of survived the last attack, but the uncertainty of who is threatening them and the secrets of the past unravelling around them puts Beau and Jane’s relationship at risk and even makes Jane consider going home and leaving her orphaned charge in order to stay safe.

Can Mr. Rochester keep his neice and her nanny safe? What good is untold riches if they can’t buy you security?

This second instalment of the Rochester Trilogy was filled with angst as Jane and Beau team up against a world of unknown adversaries. They don’t know what their motive is, but they do know that this mystery villain won’t stop until they are found.

All of this angst amps up Beau and Jane’s attraction to each other, and they come together in explosive ways. These two are on adrenaline and it shows!

In the end, we are left with one mother of a cliffhanger that has me very eager for the last book, Best Kept Secret that is expected in late August!

Strict Confidence by Skye Warren is expected to release June 15th, 2021.

I received a complimentary copy of this ebook from Valentine PR. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

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. De...

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 ...
