I really love this Belles of London series. I appreciate the group of female friends and how they always show up and support each other, both in their general lives and in their romantic escapades. The romance here was teased in the previous two books, which is great for the reading experience of a second-chance romance. We feel the history between the two leads because we've seen the remnants of it brewing for two books already. I will say that I found this entry a little less immersive and captivating than the previous two, but it still hit the spot for an intelligent historical romance.
