3.5 historical 🌟

The story is good. It has intrigue, romance, and a little humor. There is spice, but it's not a lot. I struggled with the narrator at first, but I got used to her. I enjoyed it.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I really enjoyed this one! This is the second book I’ve listened to from this author and she did not disappoint! The Nate as very good from beginning to end. I’ll look forward to more from this author

You don’t have to wait long to get an inkling of how their relationship will go.

I enjoyed the charachters and their development - also uber glad for the lack of leaning on the ‘miscommunication’ trope.

Uplifting

I found this story a very good listening. It is a very feel good book. It will leave the audience with a smile.

The reading really sold it

If I read this myself I don't think I would of enjoyed it as much as I did, the voices and reading really sold the story and it was a enjoyable experience

Another great Coldbreath

Coldbreath has a way of writing pragmatic, honest heroines that are still wildly interesting. Her heroes tend toward the grumpy, possessive type. They are all different, though and I love that about her books. They have similar elements but are distinctly different. This book has the couple at loggerheads more than some of her books. A couple of times it got old for me, but it is reigned in before it gets too bad. And, honestly, the couple seems to enjoy it. A lot.

I’m a new fan!

Thank you for making this novel apart of the member library. I now wanna listen to the series 😊👍

This Series Looks Promising

This is my first from Alice Coldbreath but it will most definitely NOT be my last. I truly like her writing style. This story is very enjoyable and has a bit of everything. Carmen Rose did it justice.

Loved it!!!

I enjoyed the main character Minerva and her strength of self to keep herself useful and improve her life and those around her. I am sooo happy the relationship grew with her brother and although it was a rock start her story bloomed and everyone else’s with it. The ending was very exciting and then happy. Loved it all!!!

A delightful surprise

What a refreshing take on historical romance. It was so much fun to enjoy a story which did not have an aristocrat or wealthy land owner as the love interest. I thought Will was so much more attractive than the standard aristocratic male love interest and the spice was top notch.
