The MacGalloways #6
Fun way to spend a rainy day ~ Even though there is a murderer to find it was more a romance than a murder mystery.
What I liked:
* Lady Modesty MacGalloway: youngest daughter, considers herself plain and destined to be a spinster, loves horses, aspires to breed and train racehorses, secretly training to be a jockey, will never legally ride in a race, not sure why she enjoys kissing Kenneth when she doesn’t plan to marry
* Kenneth Davenport, 8th Viscount Berwick: scientist, prefers bees and sheep breeding to time with the ton, focused on finding the person that killed his brother, doesn’t feel ready to take on his lordly duties, unsure why he is attracted to Modesty when he is not ready to marry
* Freddie: orphan, taken in by Fagin-like female, eagerly accepts Kenneth’s offer to work for him
* Knowing that it was not likely a “lady” would parade in men’s clothes, learn to be a jockey, and do the things Modesty did – it was fun to watch her live out her fantasies and end up where she hoped to be
* Watching the romance and love develop between the main characters
* Lady Modesty’s mother: wily woman, loving mother, wants what is best for her children, wonder if she will find a love of her own?
What I didn’t like:
* Who and what I was meant not to like
* Thinking about how difficult it must have been to survive for many during this era and what it would take to improve one’s situation
Did I enjoy this book? Yes – not my favorite by this author but a fun book to read
Would I read more by this author? Yes
Thank you to the author for the ARC – This is my honest review.
