An Extraordinary Lord by Anna Harrington

4.0

This is such a fun take on historical romance. The male protagonist, Merritt, is a barrister by day and a superhero by night. His character is loosely based on Spiderman. He meets his match in Veronica, a thief-taker.

Their meet cute is pretty spectacular. He is searching for an escaped convict and comes across her, as she detains a thief. Swordplay and innuendo ensue.

They have good chemistry and fun backstories. Their romance happens rather quickly. The main thing they join together for is a plot using riots, and I would love to have seen that more deeply examined. Overall, this is a fun and light historical romance. I'll have to check out the rest of the books in this series.

Thank you to Sourcebooks Casablanca and NetGalley for the advanced reader copy. These opinions are my own.
