Earlier this year I had binge-watched all episodes of the TV show Psych, and it was awesome to get all the references the author slid into the book! There is plenty of comedy, and the author hit that perfect balance of quirky and clever, and added to it great banter, fabulous chemistry, and a suspenseful plot. An undercurrent of angst and character growth didn't take the spotlight, but added a layer of depth that I always appreciate in rom-coms since it helps me feel a connection to the emotions rather than just feel like I'm watching an entertaining fluff movie. Don't get me wrong, though- it was SO entertaining! I love when a book can make me laugh out loud, which isn't all that often. Highly recommend for readers who need some hijinks and romance with their mystery!

I wasn't too sure about Winnie at first- she was overly confident with her business strategy... but the author showed us the complicated family dynamics that shaped her personality and influenced her choices, and I loved her character arc as she developed passion for the project and connection with the people involved. Matthew is like the captain that will go down with his sinking ship. He knows that changes need to be made but he fights against all of Winnie's ideas without the type of communication she needs for them both to be successful. These two have quite a delightful journey from stubborn pride to acceptance and embracing alternate possibilities. The setting is a character in itself as Winnie discovers the history of England and why Matthew feels so strongly about bringing it to life. There are so many humorous moments woven into their growth journey, especially references to the movie A Knight's Tale. Reading this book totally made me want to watch it again! I loved how Winnie and Matthew's experiences together and the romance that develops between them opens their eyes to unexpected hopes for the future. I'm so excited for more in this series!
