I love the Bedwyn family, I really do. But I think this installment didn't get to me as well as I hoped.

I honestly had a difficult time with this book. The level of frustration I had when I got to about 70% of the book and I STILL felt like the romance is going nowhere is INSANE. Frejya is great heroine BUT very difficult to love. There were many points in the book where I felt like Joshua is too good for her even though he is considered a rake. 

Nevertheless, by no means did I hate this book. It sadly didn't deliver what I was expecting romance-wise. So yes, 3 stars + 0.5 because Prudence has my heart and I would love to read her romance with Ben!!!!
