I have never read a book by this author and don’t usually read this type of romance but I was pleasantly surprised with how good this book was. But how can a book not be good with a mission faerie and a garden gnome as characters? Sophia, a mission faerie, is sent on a mission to help Lady Anne (the Duke of Robinsworth “Robin” daughter.) Robin is shunned by society after the death of his wife and doesn’t like to socialize. He slowly starts to have interactions with guest when Sophia is a guest as his mother’s house party. They are drawn to each other but there are rules for the fae and loving a human is not allowed. Sophia is determined to not break any rules. The book is full of mystery, humor, mischief, funny side characters, and romance. All the characters in the book was well developed and they all seemed to contribute to the humor of the story. The book was engaging, well written and very hard to put down. I can’t wait to read the next book! I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Cute is the word. What else to expect when Fairy (and then I mean wings and all) meets a handsome, brooding duke.
Sophia was a breath of fresh air, she was fun, sweet and not always thinking where her feet took her. She was just cute. She is also a fairy with a mission.
Our handsome duke is a recluse as everyone things he killed his wife..and he also says this on the first page. So I did wonder about that, but he was so nice and all so of course couldn't he have killed her. Well this at least I hoped.
Together they are, not proper. She is not bound by the ton's rules (just by fairy rules which she breaks too). And he feels alive for the first time since his wife's death. They were cute and passionate.
It was amusing and different. A paranormal romance in a historical setting. A fun sweet story about loosing your head and heart.
I did not want to put it down after having started it.

** I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.”
It’s been quite some time since I’ve read an England times with magic book.
This book was adorable. A Duke, who is believed to have killed his wife, is attempting to raise his rambunctious daughter. The Fae send Sophia to help them as her mission.
The book flowed smoothly and was a quick read. There were a few things that seemed out of place but verbal it was a good story.

This book was not like anything that I have read before. I mean the fae mixing with humans in the regency area was an intriguing idea and I could not be happier that I jumped on the chance to read this book The interactions between Sophia and Ashley warmed my heart. Her innocence but outspokenness had me smiling and hesitant to put the book down. The tragic backstory aspects and forbidden love angle only made me more eager to finish the book. My only wish for the book is that there would have been more steamy bits, but that is just what I personally like in books of this sort.
I would recommend that anyone who loves historical romances with some magic thrown in read this book.

This was one of those tales where I constantly found myself smiling and randomly chuckling. It was beautiful to see families fight for each other, to fight for their love.

Ok I usually like something that encourages you to think and analyse. But sometimes you just need a bit of crap! I skimmed through loads of this but what I read was OK not going to win any awards anytime soon though!

I forgot how well Tammy Falkner told stories! I read (years ago) some of her Reed brothers books and really enjoyed those.
This book is set in the 1800’s and is about Sophia, a Fae, and the Duke of Robinsworth, who struggles with his daughter Lady Anne and the rumors around his wife’s death.
Sophia’s mission in the human world is to take away the bad dreams of Lady Anne, that might have witnessed the death of her mother. Little did she know how drawn she would be to the “dangerous Duke”...
The side characters in this book are hilarious and I can’t wait for Claire’s story!
I received this ebook copy from the publisher and NetGalley for an honest review.

This was a cute, whimsical story about a fairy on a mission to help a girl and possibly her father. The story was a little long winded for me and could have used some shortening.
