I usually hate the books that happen after the main characters get together but this one might have been the best one.

I am in a reading slump and clearly need something different to get me going again.

Marked down for the lack of Kesgrave at certain parts of the story. I did feel the author made up for it with
Bea coming to realize Damien is her partner in crime and she couldn’t be without him.
Overall, still a very satisfying read!

I loved the first three books of the series, but this one was a little disappointing. I didn't enjoy the mystery, and Bea seemed to have stalled character development wise. I missed the banter and antics of the duke and Bea while "on the case" as well.

I'm still invested in these characters and feel optimistic book 5 reaffirm my adoration for the series.

Oh how much slower I am when reading in English instead of Finnish xD anyway, I still enjoy this series. On to the next one.

Bea and Damien we’re separated for most of this book which I wasn’t a fan of, especially because of all of the progress they made at the end of the last one. I liked how her parents deaths were explained, although the lead up was quite boring until Damien came back into the picture. I thought I’d stop with this series after this one but it seems I cannot. As much as these books drag, I feel as though my person is entwined with the story and I must see it through to the end.
