Reverse age gap was nice. Also not having physical issues magically erased. (

Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Isabel comes across as pretty self-centered, and Winter.. well, he's almost too good for his own good.

What stood out for me was Winter's caring and non-judgmental nature.
It was refreshing to see him not dwelling on Isabel's past but rather focused on having her in his future.

The story unfolds with a perfect blend of steaminess and romance. (

This book was SO GOOD. Also, reading this series out of order was the best decision! (

We finally get to learn more about Winter! I love him so much and it was nice to see more into him outside of his usual somber self. The mystery in this was also compelling and I love that we get a side story with Joseph Tinbox and Peach. (

I liked this book overall but I think I might have enjoyed it more if I had read the other books in the series. There were a lot of characters and it was difficult to keep everyone straight. That might have been less troublesome if I had read the books about those characters.

The feel of the times was fairly well done but not as intense as in some other books by this author. The relationship between the hero and heroine was sweet but I think I might have liked it better without the secret identity element. They did have good chemistry though and I liked how realistically the older heroine was written.

I definitely would like to go back and read the rest of the series.

I received this book free from netGalley for review. (
