I think I say this after every Vicky Bliss novel, but I really wish she was Amelia Peabody! These books are just ok, never amazing like the Amelias..I just find myself not caring that much about the characters. But, they read quickly and keep you mildly entertained. It also took me an entire day after finishing it to actually understand the title, and I still don't get why there's a cat on the cover. *shrugs*

I love Vicky. After reading so many female characters growing up who “didn’t know they were beautiful” until they were told so by a male protagonist (and had zero personality to boot), Vicky Bliss is so refreshing. “Yes, I’m beautiful, and it’s a damn nuisance.”

She’s got fire and fight and she’s prickly and genuinely flawed, as well as funny. John is her perfect foil. I love these books.

I am really enjoying this series.
Vicky Bliss is a delight as the main character and the growing relationship between her and her rake, John, keeps the story interesting and unexpected at times.
