📝 This was a fun and easy little regency romp. Plenty of humor (everyone) and pining (both of them) and brooding (him). The book went by super fast.

🕵️The end goal/mystery to be solved was kind of predictable once we get the main components of it, and the FMC is supposed to be really good at sniffing out the truth, so it was a bit disappointing that she didn't catch on to it sooner. 

🎧 This was dual POV but only one narrator (female). The actor did a very good job with all the different voices, good and varied accents, and it was always clear who was talking.

🌶️ 2.5/5 There was tension and a couple kisses, then one (fairly lengthy) explicit scene.

A stubborn girl who would rather do journalistic work and live as a spinster and a man who is determined to never marry find themselves entangled in a mystery.  Will they find the answers? And can they resist temptation to fall in love?

4.0

Another cute one! I loved Giles (of course) and while I think that not everything is necessarily period appropriate, some of the dialogue feels very modern, I still really enjoy this series and look forward to the third!
