Thank you to the author for this free review copy—all opinions are my own and are in no way influenced by this!
ALERT! ALERT! Bodyguard Romance. STEM Heroine. Corsets. Kisses. Need I say more??
“What is a Victorian lady's formula for love? Mix one brilliant noblewoman and her enigmatic protection officer. Add in a measure of danger and attraction. Heat over the warmth of humor and friendship, and the result is more than simple chemistry—it's elemental.”
Friends. Historical Romance Lovers. Lend me your ears. A LADY’S FORMULA FOR LOVE’s prose hits the same glorious notes as Lisa Kleypas & my queen Tessa Dare—it is *everything* I want in Historical Romance—banter, wit, sensuality in spades & strong female friendship. Add in a dash of suspense, sciencey geekdom & a hot, gruff SCOTTISH bodyguard & I’m in raptures. Violet and Arthur's chemistry is palpable, their backstories tender, vulnerable, and compelling; I loved how they slowly opened up to each other and found solace in their relationship as they never had with anyone else. Bonus? They’re mature. They’re relatable. And the sexual tension is diiiivine. I cannot recommend this book enough.
“You have taught me much about the world, but your most important lesson was about the heart. Home is where I love. Not where I live. [...] You are home.”
