or a little bit of both.

I have been waiting for Matilda’s story for months! I love the complexity built into the icy Marquess. The tension between the two characters was brilliant. Well done!

My review :
Is there a future together written somewhere in time for them …
Wow I am finally back among the living, I shut myself from any social life outside work for this book. My patients might have found me quite distracted today.
And even if it is not the last book in the series as one more will come out next month, and I am happy to have been right about the heroine-to-be. This book is for any fan of the series from the very beginning the one very awaited story, when Matilda and Montagu love-hate relationship finds its right closure.
And what a read it was, I spent my day between a fan and a box of tissues, oscillating between them at every turn of page.
I let the story flow through me, following Mrs Leech ‘s lead, and she did not disappoint.
Oh my, I love Lucian and it is to say a long way change from the first book in the series, when I longed to see him smashed under a carriage’s wheels. I even cursed his shrewd name for quite a time.
But here, I even wonder if he is not the most romantic hero out of the eleven couples brought together along the pages of the series.
Oh my, how he made me cry, he is a fierce lover and a ferocious parent and while bitterness took hold for a time of his heart, he was set free by Phoebe and Matilda’s love.
And Matilda, she is just Matildanesque, the mother hen from the whole series and a savage friend, once one’s becomes her friend, she gets her claws out when they are threatened. She never back down, she protects and defends furiously.
So stock your Kleenex and have a fan close to hand, as tears will compete with scorching and intense moments.
If you haven’t read the whole series, there is a book compiling Matilda and Montagu whole story, : ℎ https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08BNJW3VG/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_awdo_1e4.Eb9ZHF4DR
So you can jump straight to their romance.
But to fully appreciate the fun of this series, I can only recommend to read it from the very beginning.
A 10 stars read, and now 6 weeks for the last in this series before the sequel to come soon I hope.

Enthralling – But It Helps To Know the Backstory to Fully Appreciate This One
Lucian and Matilda’s story starts at the beginning of the series and is woven throughout each book. This book could be standalone, but Lucian and Matilda’s encounters in the previous books painted a fuller picture of them. I had a deeper understanding of what the two of them went through, and it made their romance more impactful. Four stars for this book alone, but the entire story which includes the history, a definite 5.
I waited so long for the story. I was rooting for Tilda the whole series. In fact after the last book I immediately downloaded this book. And boy did this book come through. It’s so heartwarming, heart wrenching, and just pure fun to read. A great ending to a very entertaining series.
