Book Review: The Husband Mission (The Spy Matchmaker #1) by Regina Scott
The Husband Mission by Regina ScottMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
What a fun book! I actually laughed at a couple points in the story and didn't want to stop reading. The characters were interesting and varied. The plot and dialog fit the setting fairly well. There were only a few typos and the story flowed as it needed to. I loved that there were some sparks flying between the hero and heroine. And I felt good rather than disappointed about having pegged Katherine's sister's perfect match as soon as I met him.
This is a clean, sweet romance with some interesting faith moments, just as one might expect as one simply lives life. If you enjoy that kind of book, then I highly recommend this one.

Book Review: The Disappearance of Lady Edith by Christina McKnight
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
This story was fun, but there were several small details and a couple of large ones which made this a modern, imaginative spin-off of Regency romance rather than what I've come to expect from a Regency romance. It also contained more spice than I prefer in the books I choose. Add to that some typos that pulled me out of the story, and you'll see why two stars are missing.
But I did like the friendship between the young ladies and their loyalty to their friend. I also enjoyed the way the hero and heroine talked with each other. The settings were well-written and it was easy for me to paint a picture in my head.
If you enjoy an imaginative twist on Regency romance, which also contains some spice, this book might be a good fit for you.
