My first Stacy Reid. I tore through this book. The audiobook narrator was awful but I found the characters and story very compelling. Looking forward to the rest of the Sinful Wallflower club's stories.

A group of wallflowers decide they want to change their live by being more wicked and scandalous and calll themselves the Sinful Wallflowers club. Katherine is one of them and pretends to be engaged to the Duke of Thornton. Things become interesting when he finds out about it. This is a beauty and the beast retelling which is done in a good way. I enjoyed this fun and entertaining story. Katherine and the duke have opposite characters, yet there is a lot of chemistry between them. I'll certaintly read more books by this author.

I received a free copy from NetGalley in return for an honest review.

Wonderful, tender love story

This was the first book I read by this author, and I was impressed. There were some issues here; especially in the early chapters, the writing was repetitive at times, and the friendship among the wallflowers wasn’t well-developed. But the love story between Alexander and Katherine was wonderful. The challenge they face isn’t one I’ve ever seen in a romance novel. I wish Alexander hadn’t been magically semi-healed at the end, but I understand the temptation to give this couple a HEA. I am excited to read the next book in this series!

sometimes i need a fake romance to liven up my life and honestly this one hit the spot. Alexander is stubbornly adorable and Kitty an intelligent airhead. I adored it

This man was somehow paralyzed, but also at one point threw a man over his shoulder and crossed a raging river??
