A review by danadoesbooks
Lady Scandal by Laura Lee Guhrke

lighthearted medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

Thank you Forever and NetGalley for the eARC of Lady Scandal!  All opinions in this review are my own.

I know this is an unpopular opinion but I don't love the hate to love trope.  I think it is really difficult to strike a balance between being able to build that tension while also not making the characters hate each other too much.

I should not have been surprised that Laura Lee Guhrke was able to write one I actually enjoyed though!  I loved Bookshop Cinderella so I was excited to read Lady Scandal and it did not disappoint!  While Guhrke is able to put Delia and Simon at odds professionally, their personalities are more grumpy/sunshine which helps to make them falling for each other more believable later.  I can't wait to read the next book in the Scandal at the Savoy series!
