I admit I quickly read the first few chapters to get through the inevitable ruination and the reunion between Arabella and Alisdair. So many unexpected events in this book and I just loved every minute.
Arabella was incredibly naive and stupid in the beginning of the book. But she's also very young and lonely and looking for love. She desperately wants a relationship in a connection with another person that isn't related to her and has huge feelings for Alisdair.
Alisdair is a sweet sweet cinnamon roll of a hero. He is such a good man and also a stoic man with principles and morals unlike so many of the men that Arabella has met in her past. You can't help but love him as a person and the way he sees Arabella.
The progression of this book as interesting because time does pass and there are time jumps in the book which we don't see a lot of authors doing today. And I appreciate Felicity taking chances to move the book along and not dragging things out, understanding the time line has to progress or else the book would not make sense. Felicity is so great at giving us new spins on tropes. Would recommend reading the other books in the series just so you know the other characters background and development.
Highly recommend A Perilous Flirtation!
