Thanks to the publisher & Netgalley for the complimentary e-ARC. All opinions provided are my own. This blog post includes affiliate links. Working-class historical leads make my heart go pitter-patter & Gabriel & Eddie are delicious ones. Enticed by an offer of financial independence, Effie decides to help bring down a deserving man. Gabriel doesn’t like the aforementioned bad man, but he does want the bad man safe so that he can continue blackmailing him. In Rules for Ruin, Mimi Matthews really makes me feel the attraction between Effie & Gabriel. He knows what he needs to do, but meanwhile there’s a gorgeous, mysterious figure named Effie he can’t get enough of. The chemistry between them is so good, steadily building in an intricate dance that leads beautifully to a much-desired HEA. This one is so good, you all! 4.5⭐️.

Thanks to the publisher & Netgalley for the complimentary e-ARC. All opinions provided are my own. This blog post includes affiliate links.You’re pretty much guaranteed steam with an Elizabeth Hoyt historical, but you never know what the plot will be. In No Ordinary Duchess, Lady Elspeth is on the hunt for a manuscript that she thinks could bring the Wise Women back to their roots. Meanwhile, she keeps running into Lord Julian, who feels the immense pressure of keeping his family safe from the machinations of their diabolical uncle. The beginning of this book is particularly adorable. Elspeth gets under Ice King Julian’s skin in the best way. He tries to be buttoned up but she unravels him with her determination, persistent questions, & softness. They’re such a great pair, with him presenting an impenetrable front in public & being emotionally reachable to her in private. Throughout the book things move quickly. This bothered me less in the beginning than in the ending, where I wanted more. But Hoyt serves up a pretty dependably satisfying experience, & this book isn’t an exception. 4⭐️. Out now!CWs: murder, attempted murder.
