Adira ao LibraryThing para descobrir se irá gostar deste livro. Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro. I’ve seen this on a few BBW shelves and lists, but Amelia is NOT a BBW. She is referred to as sturdy a couple of times, but her waist is described as “trim” so not a real curvy gal. That was a sweet and steamy book, and I enjoyed the brief sprinkles of angst; I read it cover to cover in an evening but still, I was hoping for some real insecurity and self-doubt. (3.5 stars) Tessa Dare is a new to me author. The sneak peek chapters sucked me in and I had to see what happened next. It wanders a little toward the end, but all and all I found the story to be a delight. If you want a funny, Jane Austen-ish style read, then give her a try. I liked it enough to pick up Goddess of the Hunt. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica

This was a delightful romance - though the author did not land the ending, imo. It became a bit messy and rushed but otherwise a really enjoyable read.
I really liked Spencer - he gives me SBD vibes and SBD is one of my faves :) I also liked Amelia - I enjoyed her will and dedication to her family and those she loves. I think her devotion to her brother Jack is similar to many folks who love someone experiencing addiction (to gambling, drinking, etc etc). ALSO - I love that all the women in the book seem to have the same opinion of the ridiculous name of the ridiculous club lol
I am interested if we hear about Spencer's ward - what she chooses and how those around her support her. Looking forward to the next in the series!
