Kyraryker’s quotes


"She thought it over, but couldn’t see any immediate loopholes other than the threat of her inner slut emerging, and she could darned well control that little bitch."— Susan Elizabeth Phillips

I can't love you the way you deserve, book

The Baron's Betrothal: An On-Again, Off-Again, On-Again Regency Romance - Miranda Davis


I think this is one of those times where it is truly "It's not you, it's me."

I just cannot jive with the cadence of the author's writing; I like the humor but seem to grow weary of it as it does not sustain for the whole story.  William and Elizabeth were great characters and I quite enjoyed the beginning of the book but the middle and ending dragged on and on with the will they or won't they.

Looking at ratings of my friends on here, everyone loves this book. If you're looking for a fresh take on historical regency and some witty left of center characters, then this could be a good series to start. For some reason I just can't connect with the writing throughout the whole book and I think I'm going to bow out of the series.
