pickImagine the film "She's All That" set in turn of the century England with a bookish twist. With playful and witty back and forth between the two, you will find yourself completely immersed in the opposites attract story of Evie and Max and they listen to their hearts. Side note: I need a book about Delia next!!
pickThis book doesn‘t take itself too seriously in regards to historical accuracy, but it does a great job of taking a She‘s All That story and making it less ridiculous.
Evie owns a book shop and does research for clients on the side, which leads her to a run in with a Duke and his rude charges who bet him that he can make Evie into a sought after debutant. Max sets out to prove them wrong and Evie is a full participant.
4/5 stars.
pickI decided to give this one a go when I saw it in the new releases at my library. I prefer contemporary rom-coms when I read romance so a historical romance is something different for me. The heroine, Evie, is more Eliza Doolittle than Cinderella. The plot will be familiar to you. Others have compared the story with She‘s All That and I agree. Overall this is a predictable, breezy, escapist read.
