I really enjoyed this series start! Does the plot hinge entirely on "romance reasons"? Absolutely. Did I mind? Not at all. A fun stow-away story that's plot heavy for the first half and then character-driven in the second, with lots of push-and-pull absurdity between the main characters. I spent about 20 minutes wishing harm for the male main character, King, but recovered from that fairly quickly, and our female main character, Sophie, is delightful. There were several scenes that had me legitimately giggling (the argument over whether or not she's been shot following the mail coach incident was top tier). Excited to continue this series, because let's be honest, I'm here to get hurt in The Day of the Duchess.

I loved this book. The summary doesn't do it any kind of justice, but it's such a whirlwind that it's understandable. This book broke my heart and re-pieced it back together several times. Fake marriage, hurt/comfort, annoyances to lovers, an "ambiguous" (but totally obvious) bisexual male lead -- this book has it all. I ended up having to sit in a parking lot to finish reading this book cause I couldn't put it down. And the sexy scenes? WHEW. That's some spicy stuff right there. This woman knows what her readers want.
