So during one of Audible’s last big sales I stocked up. Like, bought 7 books stocked up. I couldn’t help myself, my commute is about to triple next week so I’ve needed to increase my collection. It meant trying out a bunch of books that caught my fancy, and this was the first on the list. Alan Cumming will always be Mr. Elton to me thanks to Gwenyth’s Emma adaptation (I enjoy Jeremy Northam as my Mr. Knightley so this is my preferred version to […]
A Lady in Pants Romance
Ms. MacLean, you’ve made it up to me. After my anger with her last book I was hesitant with this next one, but I was thrilled with the premise and Ellepkay liked it. She usually has decent taste… Spoilers abound. But the cover, in and of itself is a bit of a spoiler so whatever. Chase, the fourth owner of the Fallen Angel gaming hell, is only ever referred to as Chase in all the other books. Until the last page of No Good Duke, […]
A Dumpster Fire of a Romance
I have some serious ire at this book. Ms. MacLean almost lost me with this one, because this was some hot dumpster garbage. Let me tell you why… Temple, one of the Scoundrels of this Rules of Scoundrels series, is actually the Duke of Lamont. He was disowned and cast out from society twelve years ago when on the morning of his father’s remarriage he is found in the bride’s bed covered in blood with no memory of what happened and her missing. Fast forward […]
One Okay Earl and I’m not sure he “deserves” a lover
I’m about to go all contrary on y’all, my fellow romance readers. This is on many people’s personal favorites lists, and while there are things I liked, overall I’ve got some complaints. But first… the plot. Pippa Marbury is odd. All of London Society knows it, but Lord Castleton doesn’t care. He’s going to marry the odd scientist anyways. Pippa doesn’t have much in common is Castleton, but he’ll let her run his estate and pursue her scientific research so he’s not a bad choice […]
Scoundrels and gambling and romance oh my!
My Sarah MacLean bender continues. Who knows when I’ll finish? Probably when I run out of published books… This is the start of the Rules of Scoundrels series. This series is the four owners of a gaming hell taking place 8 years after the previous series. Our heroine, Penelope, was slighted in the third book of the last series so I was quite happy to discover that she gets her own happy ending this time. Penelope, jilted by her fiance the Duke of Leighton 8 […]
Love by the Numbers
I started my first Sarah MacLean many months ago, but I didn’t get very far. The heroine started out pretty wimpy, and that’s not really my style. Fast forward a few months to a long weekend of just me and the little one, and now I’m four books in. But to begin the first series: Love by Numbers. Nine Rules to Break When Romancing a Rake is the one that started pretty slow, but I ended up being pleasantly surprised. This is the story of Calpurnia […]
