I have read 4 of this series recently which should say something. They are paranormal cozy mysteries set in Regency England. The heroine is a strong, resourceful young woman, a bit too good to be true. I enjoyed them.
Paranormal cozy mystery.
Enjoyable quick read.
Being a lover of Pride and Prejudice, I enjoy reading more about its characters. This one was a little far-fetched, but still an enjoyable read.
What a great book! I read the whole series of four books and wish there were more.
If you are and P&P fan but also like witches, this is a good one for you. Mystery plot gets a little lost in the pursuit of clothing, Balls and courting, but a good look at the historical period from a woman’s view. Second book too expensive.
A delightful novel set in the Regency era with an interesting addition of magic. This book was fun and an enjoyable read.
Jane Austen variations all ought to be this entertaining. Comedy of manners mixes with paranormal adventure for a fun read.
