All's Fair in Love and War by Virginia Heath
4.0
4 ⭐️
I think this may be my favourite Virginia Heath book. The tension was excellent, and the comedic relief was done well.
The best part was both the main characters' interactions with the children and how it changed their perspectives of each other. Each of the side characters felt well placed, too.
Within the first 20%, we get enough backstory to show us why our main characters see life and childhood the way they do and why they may not agree on it. I wouldn't say its enemies to lovers, but they definitely have different views when they meet. Despite the short time frame, their romance feels like it develops naturally.
I've gone with 4 stars because I do feel like the 3rd act conflict was somewhat unnecessary and would have preferred a more emotional realisation from Harry in regards to the admiral. But it works out in the end.
I'm looking forward to continuing the series (I am hoping Lottie will be next) and seeing where the others end up.
I received an advance review copy of this book, and this review represents my honest opinion. Thank you to netgalley, Virginia Heath, and the publisher for the opportunity to read this book.
