A Wicked Kind of Husband by Mia Vincy
3.0
There were so many lovely things about this book and I enjoyed the writing, the characters ... it was funny and witty.. I loved the names of the various stewards, the banter ...
What I absolutely loathed was the heroine's fixation with becoming pregnant, though. It made the otherwise well-written love scenes seem quite unromantic to be honest. While I realise it was subverting the norm where the man regards the woman as a babymaking machine ... it really didn't inspire me to like Cassie very much ... I would have rated the novel much higher if she wasn't so obsessed with becoming impregnated to the point of almost seeing a little unbalanced/unhinged about it ... Such a shame because everything else was rather delightful.
