The Look of Love by Dragonblade Publishing, Meara Platt
3.0
3 - ⭐️⭐️⭐️
The Look of Love is the first installment in the Book of Love series. A series of books combining swoon-worthy romances and lighthearted humor.
I won't keep this review long since there isn't much to say about it and the story is very simple.
Lady Olivia Gosling finds or let's say is hit in the head twice by an old book titled The Book of Love in a musty bookshop. She believes that this book may have the answers to attract other suitors than the one her awful guardian is planning to marry her off to.
And who is a better target to experiment on than her childhood friend, the handsome Alexander Beastling, the Duke of Hartford.
For surely if she managed to make a Duke fall in love with her, she can make any man she chooses do the same.
It's a cute read of two friends although there is some sort of an age gap between them but their friendship is sweet.
What I adore about Meara Platt's books is the humor she twines with the romance. I always know I'll have a good laugh while reading any of her books.
Unfortunately, the humor was not colorful enough to hide the dullness of the characters. I liked them but I did not find them interesting nor was I invested in their romance.
I look forward to reading the rest of the series. I read book 4 (I know I started the series out of order) but I liked that one enough to give this series a chance and I also adored the Farthingales.
