A review by joooools
Maids of Misfortune by M. Louisa Locke

4.0

I got this book as an Amazon freebie and it was just pure happenstance that I opened it to read it as I had a few choices. I was expecting a seedy romance novel with a bit of mystery because the furthest I read into the description only mentioned late 19th century San Francisco. I was pleasantly surprised by the protagonist, a strong woman in an era where women were hobbled. I loved the book and immediately started on its sequel. Totally recommend.
