The Wallflower Wager by Tessa Dare

funny lighthearted medium-paced

5.0

All the stars for how this book lifted my spirits and filled my heart. A mood read gone very right. 

If he ever permitted himself to love, he would love fiercely and without reserve. Only the most stubborn of women would be able to bear it. And Penny loved nothing so much as a challenge.

I have been anticipating Penny’s story with all of her amusing animals and sham sandwiches—it did not disappoint. I laughed, swooned, panted, and laughed some more. Truly, the best in the series. 

Falling in lust at first sight was bad enough. This afternoon she’d tumbled into a whole river of desire, all the way up to her neck. Now Penny was drowning in a sea of sensuality.

The characters are wildly entertaining and the romance is undeniable. The pacing held my attention and the spicy scenes were well-placed. I highly recommend this series for a lighthearted, fun, and lusty afternoon.
