Gentleman Jim
by Mimi Matthews
PREORDER THIS BOOK NOW!! I mean it. As much as I love Fair as a Star, I’m pretty sure Gentleman Jim is my new favorite. Lordy. I just read this book straight through and it’s now after 3 AM and I DIDN’T REALIZE IT. That’s the mark of a good book, my lovelies. Whew.
This book has everything I love in a romance! Her books are sexy as heck and she doesn’t need ten page love scenes to make them so. Gentleman Jim is definitely a little more sensual than her previous novels, but not something I wouldn’t feel comfortable recommending to grandma.
I appreciate that this book turns typical stereotypes on their heads a bit. Maggie does an awful lot of rescuing in this book. I am here for it. Even with her illness, she’s in now way a damsel in distress. That said, she still feels like authentic to the 19th century. I love Mimi’s ability to consistently write a heroine who’s relatable to the modern reader but also not anachronistic. I’m not even going to mention Viscount St. Clare, because he’s my new crush and amazing and now I’m going to go to bed and cry about the fact he’s fictional...so...goodnight.
P.S. DO NOT forget to preorder this!
