MY REVIEW:
DISCLAIMER: I voluntarily read and reviewed an advance copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
I loved Damien and Mercy’s story! Their chemistry was really palpable and I thought their relationship was very cute, funny, and hot! I loved watching them fall in love! I think my favorite scene was when Damien realizes that even though he’s falling for Mercy, he can’t offer her anything because he’s not titled, and instead of keeping it to himself, he reveals his feelings to Mercy.
This is a short story; only 124 pages so if you’re looking for a short and steamy regency romance, this is the story for you.
Thank you Tracy and WOLF Publishing for the advance copy!
