 I really enjoyed this story, even more than the first in the series. Like the first, it is humorous, lighthearted, and a bit ridiculous, but that just adds to the fun.

The characters’ emotional growth is well done, with each learning to trust themselves and the people they care about. The premise of the Earl hiding from his sisters is silly, but it adds a lot of charm to the story. Overall, it’s a cute, feel-good read. Just let go of any seriousness and enjoy! 

I listened to the audiobook, and as with the first book, Noah Wall nailed the narration of the story and made it even more delightful!
