The Governess Gambit by Erica Ridley
5.0
A great start to a new series
Good enough for a bump on ratings to all. 4.5 out of 5 stars on my scale.
I'm a fan of Ridley's work and this prequel to the upcoming The Duke Heist is no exception. The Wynchesters are a lively bunch of siblings who went from orphans to family. It reminded me of a more loving case that Parker had with her mentor in Leverage.
While tragedy strikes a few times, Chloe still works to move mountains to help those who can't help themselves. Despite the setbacks, the siblings work together and find solutions. Because Baron Vanderbean helped them, they do the same. Love it.
Honestly, the mystery to solve the problem was fun. I really want to learn about Tommy and how she came to be such a chameleon. The siblings are all talented in their own ways.
I only took off half a star because I didn't quite believe the romance in this story. The next in the series will explain so much more, I'm sure. But for this, I felt Chloe deserved much better.
