Never underestimate a lady in a dress.
This action packed, swoon worthy novel really lives up to the hype!
Wow! What an absolutely fun book! This is such a great spy thriller, filled with chases and intrigue.
From early on the main couple really have great chemistry. Bronwyn is determined to make her own decisions and save herself, but in a way that really felt real. And I absolutely adore Valentine. The way he is completely fooled by Bronwyn in the begging is hilarious and makes this a true enemies to lovers.
I adored Amalie Howard’s writing. She is really dedicated to historical accuracy. The fact that she enjoys historical details really makes those tidbits shine, which might be my favorite part of this book.
Overall I loved this and can’t wait for more from this author!
Stars: 4.5/5
Tropes: Enemies to lovers, spies, best friend’s sister
CW: Violence, kidnapping, gun use, racism, injury
I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
