Indecent


The Pheonix Club, Book 4

by Darcy Burke

⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5


Indecent is the forth book in the Phoenix Club series and tells picks up where Intolerable left off… which turned out to be with Viscount Glastonbury accidentally kidnapping Prudence Lancaster, the destitute companion to his target!


Well of all the kidnappers I’ve read about, Glastonbury has to be one of the kindest and most desirable… I think I got Stockholm syndrome from this kidnapping, because I was fully on the side of Glastonbury and Prudence making a go of it!


I fell for this kind and bumping kidnapper as all his plans are foiled from the wrong girl being nabbed to the broken carriage and snowstorm that strands them together at an inn. And as for Prudence, her backbone and heart made her a heroine you wanted to root for on the way to her HEA!


But it was not as easy for these two… obviously, Glastonbury was after Prudences wealthy charge, he needs money and he can’t let his heart get in the way of taking care of his family and estate. That would be a tough pill to swallow, but Pru totally understands and accepts this! These two! My heart went out to them!


I don’t want to give away many other details… but they have a wild ride full of surprises and revealed secrets on the way to their HEA.


I was surprised at how easily I fell for this pairing, they may be my favourite of the Pheonix Club yet! 


Though this is the 4th book of the series, author Darcy Burke does a great job setting up the characters and the background to have new readers jump in at this point, making this book easily read as a standalone.



Indecent by Darcy Burke was released January 25th, 2022.



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

My Contrary Mary

My Contrary Mary Voice Galley by Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton, & Jodi Meadows ⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 What a fun treat to be back in the world of Verities and Eðians (shapeshifters)that readers were introduced to in My Lady Jane! In this re-telling of the story of Mary Queen of Scots, we are shown her life at court in France where she awaits to be married to her betrothed, the France Dauphin, Francis. Both Mary and Francy are nearly pawns in their elders plans, but they yearn for a time when they will be able to rule together and make a difference to their respective kingdoms.  Like the other Janite books before this, magic and comedy play a big role and make this story a lot of fun. The comedic references to modern movies were such a hoot to spot and decipher what movie they were from! This book went at a relatively quick pace and followed our teenage royalty as they attempt to find a way to rule in a divided world. The Verities and Eðians seem like a good representation of the Cat...
