This narrator is truly excellent! She uses super subtle vocal shifts for the two different POVs which are distinct enough to develop the separate characters but in no way overdone. Just a delight to read!

Review of the digital edition:
This is the best of historical romance. There are depths of frivolous emotions, traumatic backstories, implausible coincidences, and two characters perfect for each other just falling into a relationship—everything you could expect and want from an over-the-top and a bit unhinged regency romance.

Wicked in His Arms
4 Stars

There is nothing calm and controlled Tobias Walcott despises more than an audacious and brazen woman. That is until Lady Olivia Sherwood arrives at his country estate for a house party and turns his life upside down.

Reid has written a fantastic love-hate relationship with Tobias and Livvie. Their chemistry is off the charts and their romance is both sensual and intimate. Their bickering is delightful and never deteriorates into nasty barbs or insults.

My only issue with the book is the longish separation while Tobias comes to his senses, but he nevertheless gives good grovel and the ending is very satisfying.

It looks like I have found my next favorite author.
