Three charming novellas

Each story was different with likable characters and a satisfying conclusion.
I especially enjoyed the first and third novellas.
The first story was very romantic. The“steamy“ scenes were especially well done, being both tender and erotic..
The setting of the third novella was especially interesting. The couple’s romance was Interwoven with glimpses of the diverse lives and backgrounds of people of African descent in Regency England.

Nice story

I don’t have anything bad to say about this book. I thought it was a good book to listen to while cleaning.

Fun, diverse characters

I loved the female characters and how they were all different and not just upper class women. I recommend this book for anyone who like romance novels. Shana Galen has good dialogue and quick wit and lots of fun costumes. Should make a cute series in the vein of Bridgerton. I especially appreciated the diversity of characters in the last book, so few books discuss free blacks in London.

Not worth purchasing

I listen to these books because they cost nothing extra as they are included in the membership. They are all mostly the same. A bit too sexually explicate for sure. I would never purchase this one or others like it.

Just Below Mediocre

story 1 = chapters 1-9
story 2 =
story 3 =

Moronic Heroine & Unrealistic HEA for Story 1, Unbelievable All Around. None it was "period" or even consistent within story...particularly the mother. Dramatic, but you won't root for either of the main characters. They're stupid.
