eh
it started well enough and neither of the characters were unlikable
but
it just wasn't anything special. said it after reading another Dare book... When A Scot Ties the Knot, but i don't think she's that adept at writing damaged heroes. i suppose i can appreciate the lack of true angst and the fact that the heroes are never douchey but i really feel like her damaged heroes are kind of one note. she's definitely gotten better at it with newer releases (like The Duchess Deal) but i find myself hoping that the rest of the books i read off of her backlist have more zesty heroes.
ps if ur reading this i'm reading all of dare's backlist for a "guide to" video in september

Dare just isn't my cup of tea. I've only read The Wallflower Wager, but I was just never sold on any of it. Especially the traumatic backstories for either character.

Oooh I'm so excited for your Tessa Dare video! :) I love her, but I feel like her books are kind of all over the place. The Spindle Cove series is the most consistently great one imo (my fav Dare is A Week to be Wicked). The Girl Meets Duke series books were all two-three stars for me... Castles Ever After books were better but not five star reads. She's still my favorite HR author and I think the writing quality is v high for the genre. I'm just disappointed that her books vary so much.
This isn’t the best but the second one, A Week to Be Wicked, is FANTASTIC! I still think about Colin and Minerva and how amazing they are.
