This book is so fascinating. I love amnesia tales, but this tale of the lawyer and the widow - each trying to figure out how to protect the things most precious to them and trying to figure out why they are so drawn to each other and to this child never quite went where I thought it would (other than the smoochies).
so-soThis one felt a little disjointed to me, the characters were strong and the story interesting but the HEA felt a little forced. I loved all of the historical bits about race and how diverse the regency era really was; this book was smart and well researched but was just a bit flat for me. Will definitely read the 3rd book in the series to see where the Widow‘s Grace team takes us next. #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

Sequel to A Duke, the Lady and a Baby
I liked that this regency romance had a diverse cast and the topics that surround diversity in that time - mixed race relationships, colonialism, slavery; but also post traumatic stress, grieve, amnesia, 'madness'.
The angst the two protagonists were facing were reasonable, yet used a bit repetitively.
pickThis novel was so much fun. Prior to watching Bridgerton, I shied away from Regency romance, preferring contemporary. But, I picked this one up for the Bridgerton feel, and was definitely not disappointed. In addition to the romance, there was some intrigue and a bit of mystery to unravel. A fun romp of a book! #ARC #Netgalley
pick3.5/5
This was a fun take on the amnesia trope. Jemina suffered amnesia after surviving a terrible shipwreck. Daniel is the adopted father of the only other survivor and holds the secrets toher past.
I did get a bit frustrated in the middle section when the relationship between two characters seemed very obvious to me, but I was still very happy with how everything was explained in the end and enjoyed the book.
