“It is a truth universally acknowledged that a man and woman in possession of a false marriage license must be in want of separate beds.”

I devoured all the Pride and Prejudice and classic literature references throughout this book, definitely my favourite part about the read. Other than those really cute tie-ins I did find myself bored at parts. I wasn’t really itching to pick this book up and read it, which leads to the lower star rating.

Still a cute and cozy romance if that’s what you’re looking for!

How do I sign myself up for a week in Starkthorn Castle getting into shenanigans with the Wisteria Society?!

Another super fun, super silly time. I wish there were more books in this series — it has been a HOOT! 😆

Audiobook narrator was a hoot! Absolutely perfect narration

jamieseemsamused's review against another edition

4.0

3.5 stars (I enjoyed it). I liked this third book less than the first two in the series. I didn't enjoy the two main characters in this book as much as the first two because they're much more reserved. The fantasy plot kind of loses its thread in the middle and most of the book is just carried by India Holton's brand of British romcom vibes. I still liked it overall, and it ends in a nice and neat bow wrapping up all three books.

Audiobook review
Audiobook narration: Single British female narrator.
Audiobook performance: 5 out of 5 (Enhances the reading experience)

Book information
Genre: Historical fantasy romcom
Series information: Book 3 in Dangerous Damsels series. Completed 3-book series of interconnected standalone stories, but they have to be read in order.
Steam Level: 3 out of 5 (Open door)
Romance Level: 5 out of 5 (Romance story in fantasy setting)
How I Read It: Paperback borrowed from library and audiobook borrowed from Libby
