The Lady in Red
by Kelly Bowen
I very much enjoyed Kelly Bowen's "The Lady in Red." The main characters, Flynn and Charlotte, were quite well-developed for a novella, and I couldn't help but empathize with both of them. They deserved recognition for their artistic talent but were both forced to pretend to be someone else in order to get it. Also, I am a big fan of historical romances in which the heroine pretends to be a man, and this one was no exception. My favorite thing about the trope is usually the comedic aspect of the hero wondering about his sexuality because he's suddenly attracted to a boy or young man; while that was missing here, this was an entertaining story nonetheless.
I have not read the previous books in the Season for Scandal series, but this novella stood very well on its own, so I did not feel lost at all. I enjoyed meeting some of the characters from the earlier books here, however, and will plan to go back and read them now.
