With This Ring by Amanda Quick
5.0
Amanda Quick, for me, is the absolute queen of historicals. She has the uncanny ability to weave mystery, comedy, romance, murder, history, adventure, and just all the things I love wrapped up into one! You really can’t beat a good Amanda Quick novel IMO.
With This Ring has one of my favorites tropes of HR: scholarly hero/heroine. The hero here is the dashing and darkly mysterious Mad Monk Leo Drake who rules over his gloomy castle with a giant wolf hound and a passion for uncovering history’s myths and secrets. Enter one Beatrice Poole, who needs the Mad Monk to help solve a murder AND track down a mythical ancient artifact that could unlock a treasure unrivaled. I’m sorry, does this not sound PERFECT?
This novel is both fast paced and utterly enchanting. It’s a standalone novel and I think the perfect read, honestly. I love Quick’s writing style and the atmosphere she’s able to create with each story and the characters here are so dynamic. It sucked me in from the beginning and didn’t let me go until the mystery was solved and an HEA was given! A+ historical romance!
