A mail order bride ends up falling for the brother who picks her up from the train station instead of the man she is promised to.

Loved it ❤️🤠

An adorable and funny historical romance with a touch of fantasy. The banter between the love interests is great and I read this slow just to savor it. 5⭐️

So I said to Sawyer, “Do you wanna listen to a book with me?” He plopped down like that as if he said, “Yes, Mommy.” It was so fffing adorable! So I will read the kindle while listening to the audiobook because I‘m a sucker for the British accent.

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

This was SO MUCH FUN. I loved Miles & Abigail—their banter, humor, and romance, as well as the contrast & balance that becomes apparent between these two such well-matched characters. Heyer just gets everything right: Abigail‘s pitch-perfect near-caricature relatives—lovable and infuriating by turns—a surprising but thoroughly appealing male love interest, and comeuppance where it is due. ⤵️

BarbaraJean (Cont‘d) The ending is WAY too abrupt, but also adorable. All the praise for my May #DoubleSpin + 1966 pick for #192025. @TheAromaofBooks @Librarybelle 4d

TheAromaofBooks This is a favorite of mine. One thing I love is how often Heyer writes about slightly older heroines - instead of her being 16 or 17 and yearning for love, she's in her late 20s and happily single. And the way these two hit it off as friends at first just delights me! 4d
Librarybelle Lovely paperback edition! 4d
BarbaraJean @Ruthiella @Librarybelle Thank you! Library book sales have provided so many treasures! 3d
BarbaraJean @TheAromaofBooks Yes, I loved that, too! This one could so easily have been about the niece, but Heyer chooses the less-conventional (and far more interesting) heroine instead. And the friends first vibe is my favorite (forever influenced by Anne and Gilbert!) 3d
CarolynM There are so many Heyer‘s I fear I‘ll never read them all, but I will look out for this one😊 23h

A Candle in the Dark | Megan Chance

My #ReadOrDonate book; I did read about a third of it. Megan Chance wrote intense, interesting, dark romances but a lot of their value was in how different they were for their time, and that's no longer a big draw for me. Neither is 400 pages of stress.
