What a beautiful song, Robert Burns poem written in 1794. #JuneSpecials RedRose @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Great fun! Our heroine makes her way from Italy to post-Revolutionary France, to Regency England, outwitting various nefarious people in her life who wish to do her harm. Many adventures ensue!

It‘s on its way to you at long last, @TheAromaofBooks ! 🙄😬

@TheAromaofBooks @mabell @Chrissyreadit Looks like this will be the month when I FINALLY read our book! I think the Spin Gods have sent me a message. 😂

I enjoyed reading this book a lot. I loved the characters, the plot of the book, and the time period it was set in. I hope to see the characters again in the other books by this author. I rated this book a 4 out of 5 stars.

This was fun! And it‘s always a delightful surprise to find one‘s own name randomly included in a minor detail…

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I think I ended up liking this one more than the first - it's hard to put my finger on how, but she draws me in right off the bat. I love the humor & wit she gives her characters, and the romance is a good blend of realistic and romanticized. It's clear that Irwin loves this time period, and these books feel well-researched, settled in their time period, but also contemporary.
I'm looking forward to more from this author!

I have been in a woeful reading slump, and let this sit for a month before I actually sat down and read it. As always, I love the characters, and the fact that each mystery involves some scientific/technological advance being made during the Regency. This one wasn‘t as fascinating as others in the series, but I still enjoyed it very much and continue to recommend these books.
