The Brazen Bluestocking

Tracy Sumner

DID NOT FINISH

Maybe I'll try this one again some time, but it didn't click for me.

Favorite of the series so far. Loved the love story, the side characters, the humor… all so good.

I’m so glad I took a chance on this book, my first by Christina Britton. I’ll definitely be reading her other work!

This is a fun and creative historical romance, with unique characters and excellent writing. The plot involves a group of women investigating an embezzler at a gaming hell, and their interactions with the owners of the establishment. Romance ensues, plus a fair bit of excitement and intrigue.

I did have some issues with the character development of the leads, and with the arc of their romance. Still, this was a fun and memorable read. The adventurous elements, sharp female characters, and witty lines reminded me of Julie Anne Long, Kate Bateman, plus maybe a touch of Joanna Shupe. The charming cast of characters leaves open many appealing options for possible sequels, and I’ll be looking forward to them.

Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for providing an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
