thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this arc!
3.5 stars, rounded up
i enjoyed this book! virginia heath’s writing style is very easy to read. much like the first book in this series, i liked the speed of the plot and the tropes used; also much similar to book one, i found that the characters were a bit flat, and the dialogue felt somewhat juvenile at some points. regardless of this, i really liked this book! i loved diana and giles (especially diana, she was one of my favourites in ‘never fall for your fiancee’ as well), and it was nice to see more of vee in this book (though her character seemed quite inconsistent from how she was portrayed in the first book). over all, i liked this book; it was an easy read, and if you enjoyed the first book, you’ll almost certainly like this one as well :) (it also has gotten me super excited for vee's book!!)

Probably 3.75 rounded up - the word to describe this historical romance is rollicking, there's a lot of haring across the country, skulking in bushes, confronting ne'er do wells of all sorts. A strong heroine with a real skill set as a reporter and a charming and intelligent hero.
