The Perks of Loving a Wallflower

The Wild Wynchesters, Book 2

by Erica Ridley

⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5

The Wynchester are back and they are again teaching us what it means to be a family and what is love!

Thomasina Wynchester or Tommy to her friends, story and love interest was hinted at in the first book and seamlessly continued into this story.

Tommy is a person who is comfortable in all kinds of disguises, but the hardest one to be comfortable and accepted in is as herself, plain Tommy Winchester, former orphan who likes to wear breeches and loose shirts over dresses.

Miss Philippa York is a bluestocking heiress of polite society. She uses her position to preform good works through charities, but she knows her true purpose is to increase her family standing by marrying a peer.

A friendship and alliance soon blossoms into a romance as Tommy and Philippa learn what it means to be a family and find love and acceptance for their true selves.

This story just melted my heart! I loved that this relationship could only work if both parties could figure out what they truly wanted in life and who they wanted to be. Also, the Wynchester family and their unwavering support was a delight to see again. Can anything flap these Wynchesters?

This was a beautiful story of love and family that I could not get enough of!

The Perks of Loving a Wallflower by Erica Ridley was released October 25th, 2021.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Forever Grand Central Publishing through NetGalley and the physical copy from the publisher. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
