A beach read kind of romance. It was a cute story. However, I disliked the female MC. She was insecure and whiny and I had a hard getting past that. 3.5⭐️

My first Sandra Brown. I didn‘t even know there was such a thing as romance thriller, but I guess that‘s a genre and I guess that‘s what this was. If it hadn‘t been so unbelievable, it probably would‘ve rated a little higher. Maybe.

Quick paced action thriller and an easy read

Excellent narrator, interesting story. Enjoyed this audiobook 🎧

I planned to read a little bit of this book in bed last night and ended up finishing it at 4am. Oops. So I loved it. This book has an unlikable heroine, at least in the beginning. She's a snob and I love her. She runs off the day after getting married to a cruel old Duke with a man, Neal, who mistakes her for a botanist. He's confused by how different she is in person vs her letters. Lowell writes beautifully. She reminds me of Sherry Thomas.

I really enjoyed this sequel to Just Ella. And while Ella wasn‘t the main character, she does appear in this book, so we get to see what she‘s up to.

Another great addition to this series. On the surface it‘s a detective series, but the author is absolutely brilliant at weaving in other themes and politically important issues. In this one the continuing Syrian civil war. My heart breaks for all those refugees, unwanted anywhere. 💔

I want to like Dickens - I really do - because once you cut out all the random, rambling, repetitive filler his story lines themselves are excellent, and this is the perfect example. The first story, The Great Winglebury Duel, was the better of the two but definitely would have benefitted from some editing nonetheless.

Not terrible, but a bit bro-y for me. Really made me think about how no genre ages quite as quickly as romance. Also, the hero kept saying “babe“ so I was forced to picture him as Beetlejuice.
