pickThis is the first book in the lady violet series. She is a widow just out of mourning. She is going to her first house party based on her doctor‘s recommendation. Someone is stealing jewelry and other things from the guests. Lady Violet investigates with her 2 friends to see what‘s going on. Nice cozy historical mystery.
Something light tonight.
so-soGrace Burrowes is trying something new : she released a series of romantsy mysteries featuring Lady Violet. I just finished book 4 - Lady Violet Enjoys a Frolic . I didn‘t like the mystery in this one and I found the story very unbelievable. I do like Lady Violet‘s romantic adventures. I suspect a twist will happen at the end of the series. Because I‘m borrowing from Libby I‘ve read book 3 &4 and I think book 6 is available next. So far a so-so
pickA good start to an historical mystery series from a favorite historical romance author of mine. Lady Violet emerges from two years of mourning a philandering but otherwise amiable husband unsure and unenthusiastic about a house party that a physician friend has talked her into attending. She becomes drawn into some thefts among the guests and aided by Hugh (a French physician) and Sebastian (a childhood friend who is now a marquess), 🔻
bailedBailing at about 50% because I'm finding the way an autistic side character is being discussed kind of skin crawling. No thank you!
pickA quick, sweet Victorian romance centering around a rake trying to reform himself and his reputation and the woman who has complete faith in him when no one else does (including his family). The love-at-first-sight for Tristan would have been a bit hard to believe, but due to the brevity of the book (230 pgs.), I took it in stride. My second book from this author, and I‘ve enjoyed both for their sweet, heartwarming stories. Well written. 4/5⭐️
This is currently free for #Kindle. I read one of her other books and enjoyed it. #ebookdeal #kindledeal
Thinking about last Sunday and my layover at YVR. Thanks to a good book and Starbucks it was rather pleasant. Today is a do nothing, still on holiday Sunday- hope everyone else is having a happy Sunday!
pickI am devoting today to reading some of my “in the middle of” books. Just finished this lovely #romantsy that takes place at a house party hosted by Julian , Duke of Haverford. Julian is handsome but he is drowning in debt , Elizabeth Windham is more interested in lending libraries than marriage. Of course sparks fly and problems occur but there‘s a happy ending 💕💕😀
pickHoopla has some sweet #romantsy audiobooks. A rake comes across a lovely innocent crying in the garden. Of course he falls in love and of course tribulations ensue but don‘t worry there‘s a happy ending 😀🐉
