Book Review: P.S. I Love You

P.S. I Love You (Twickenham Time Travel Romance)
Goodreads Summary
Cora Rey wanted a fresh start in life, but being thrown back in time to 1850 isn’t how she expected to do that. She discovers that Victorian England isn't the pleasant social whirl Jane Austen led her to believe, but when in Rome—or in this case Twickenham . . . She’s determined to have the vacation of a lifetime, especially in the company of a certain duke. 
  
Simon Tuttle never expected to become the duke of Hertfordshire, never wanted it, but now he is, and eligible women seeking a title consider him the next trophy to be taken in the marriage mart. A union of convenience is the most he hopes for due to the shame-filled secret he bears—until he meets Cora. Now, he imagines that a love match could be possible after all. Hiding his secret from society has been easy—hiding it from Cora proves impossible. Can Cora love a man like him despite learning the truth? 

This delightful romance is a little Regency, a little contemporary, and a lot Victorian.

Review
This was a fun time travel read. The beginning took a few chapters to get into, but soon I was flying through this book. There were a few unexpected twists that I liked, but I don't want to give anything away, so I'll let you discover them for yourself. The characters were fun, and interesting. And of course I loved the Victorian England setting. If you are looking for a fun, quick, time-travel romance, this is for you.

Blog Tour: Enchant



Enchant by Micalea Smeltzer
Genre: Young Adult

Mara Pryce never imagined that her life was anything but normal and then a strange gray-eyed young man appears at her graduation. When he vanishes without a trace, she’s convinced he’s a figment of her imagination. Then he appears again and shatters her whole world.

Mara is an enchanter, part of an ancient line of Wiccan power, and a war is raging—one of good and evil—between the Enchanted and the Iniquitous.

The Iniquitous want her dead and it’s Theodore’s job as her protector to keep her safe.

When Mara and Theodore arrive at a safe house, where Mara will remain hidden while learning about her powers, they find that the real threat might be a little closer to home than they want to believe.

Review

This was my first Micalea Smeltzer book that I've read, but I have quite a few of her books on my to-read list. The premise and gorgeous cover of this book instantly caught my attention. Enchant was a quick read, and while some parts were predictable (in a good way), it was enjoyable. The action starts right off the bat and doesn't really stop. Mara was a likeable character and Theo was a good Protector. They both had their flaws but this made them more realistic (or as realistic as you can get in a book about magic 😜) and I liked seeing their relationship develop. The supporting characters were great additions to the story and learning about how the magic worked was interesting. I will eagerly await the next book in the series to see what happens next!
