Book Review- The Vicomte's Masquerade by Sofi Laporte
As delightful as a light and fluffy cream puff from Monsieur Stohrer’s bakery, this book in the Georgian’s in Paris series captured my heart, and I savored every morsel of it. Sofi Laporte continues to be a favorite author and an automatic-buy from me. Sofi’s books are always full of humor and sweetness, and this book was no exception. I enjoyed the escapades of Melinda “Mellie” Findlay, who is so desperate to escape her arranged marriage to the French vicomte, she concocts

Book Review- My Lady Will You Dance, by Sofi Laporte
How many reviews do I need to write before I can become the president of the Sofi Laporte fan club? All jokes aside, I seriously can’t get enough of her books. They are an automatic buy from me whenever a new one is available. My Lady, Will You Dance is a tale of two lovers separated by cruelty, each believing the other is dead, only to reunite under a surprising set of circumstances and quickly find their happy ending. I loved Mira and Kit’s romance so much, I could not pu

Book Review- A Good Name by Sarah Courtney
Sarah Courtney doesn't just go for a straight-up modern Pride and Prejudice, she does it with an interesting twist: Darcy is the adopted son of George and Anne Darcy, but he knew Elizabeth in his childhood under his birth name-- George Wickham. I enjoyed this scenario, especially since Lizzy and Will/George originally bond over books. Lizzy's taste in books (and presumably the author's) is a lot like mine, including Harry Potter, Narnia, and many other classic books. The twis

Book Review- Penelope and the Wicked Duke by Sofi Laporte
Another delightful Regency romance from Sofi Laporte! I really enjoyed the comical relationship between Penelope and Alworth. From their crash-meeting, to her tricking him into eating spicy vindaloo curry, to his helping her become a member of White's, all while knowing she is masquerading as a boy, the interactions between these two had me in stitches. Alworth is the epitome of a 19th century dandy who can't decide which of his forty-three waistcoats to wear, fusses over the
