Bow Street Book 1 It took me ages to read this book. Every page felt like a slog, but I forced myself to read it, well... most of it. I skimmed a lot at the end. When I first started reading historical romance, I would have listed Kleypas as one of my favourite authors, but … Continue reading Bianca’s Book Review: “Someone To Watch Over Me” by Lisa Kleypas
Victorian Rebels Book 4 This book started with a bang. We're taken straight into the action where Cole and Imogen meet at a gambling den.

The Wallflowers Book 3 I don’t re-read a lot, but I felt like digging into something I knew I would enjoy. I loved this when I first read it. It gets mixed reactions from some due to Sebastian kidnapping and threatening to rape the heroine in the previous book in the series. In the first … Continue reading My Review: “The Devil in Winter” by Lisa Kleypas
