I skimmed through this book (10/8/21) to get the steam stats. I still love so much about it. It's absurd, but the hero has so much that I love. He's arrogant, and cocky, and gets what he wants, but the heroine teaches him to be gentle. I still love it. I think I should boost my rating to 5 stars. There's been books I've read lately that I rated higher than this that I didn't like as much.
Locations of kisses/sex scenes
Pg 87 – first kiss (definitely a bit of dubcon happening here)
Pg 138 – kisses (again, dubcon), that lead to breast play and fingering for her but they get interrupted before orgasm
Pg 179 – fingering orgasm for her
Pg 238 – kisses, missionary sex (virginity loss for her)
Pg 288 – oral for her (orgasm) followed by missionary
Pg 371 total pages
(Original review August 2018:)
This book was so ridiculous but I kinda loved it!

New thoughts October 2021 :
I skimmed through this one for steam stats for our facebook group Upturned Petticoats and Undone Cravats. When I first read this series, this one was my favorite, but I didn't like it as much this time around. The hero was....a lot. I can handle jerks and even seek them out, but this hero was classic Jeffries - he was hurt as a child and can never ever love and isn't interested in marriage. He treats the heroine like garbage, doesn't listen to her repeatedly, is certain she's trying to trap him. And the heroine isn't innocent here either - there's lies and trying to hide her real identity though it's driven by fear and protection for her family, so I have empathy with her. It just wasn't my thing this go around, but I also didn't sit down and give it a 'full' read so I'll keep my star rating the same.

Original Review: May 2019
Really enjoyed this book. Probably my favorite of the series. I really liked both the heroine, Emily and the hero, Jordan.
Emily is a nobody, an innocent rectors daughter from the country. She happens to meet Jordan at a masquerade ball and they share a kiss.
Months later he meets Emily again in London, masquerading in a totally different manner. No mask, but different name and identity. He is determined to find out the truth about her situation.
I loooooove a book where the hero basically loses his mind over the heroine, and I felt like Jordan experiences that

Plant-Based Meal Prep: Simple, Make-Ahead Recipes for Vegan, Gluten-Free, Comfort Food
Adam Bannon, Stephanie Tornatore
Loved the introductions to the authors of this book. Refreshingly honest and totally non judgemental. I haven't seen their youtube channel but will be sure to check it out.
Recipes are marked with soy free, nut free, gluten free, grain free for easy avoidance of desired components.
Pictures of most recipes is a huge plus! Definitely love the pictures and makes me more apt to make the food. The beginning of the book has some advice for cooking plant based, things you'll need in the kitchen, things that will be handy in the pantry. You get a few meal plan/prep pages with the breakdown of how to batch cook and prep the containers to provide a variety of meals. It includes the shopping list too which is nice. I love that there's not a bunch of weird crazy ingredients in this book. It's wholesome, cheap, easy to find whole food ingredients. Many of it is based on pantry items so you won't be running to the store multiple times a week.
I was able to receive an ARC copy complimentary from netgalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
