The Perks of Loving a Wallflower is the second book in Erica Ridley's The Wild Wynchesters series. Thomasina Wynchester, a master of disguise, wants only one thing, to be loved for who she is. Philippa York doesn’t believe in love and is only interested in solving a mysterious military code. She resents needing the help of a man, but when she enlists Baron Vanderbean's help, she is pleasantly surprised to find out that her new friend is actually the charming and clever Tommy. Hilarity and sparks ensue and lead to a fantastic romance.

Erica Ridley takes the reader on a beautiful and wildly romantic journey. Tommy has had more experience with being attracted to other women, while Philippa has spent her life confused and wondering why she never feels any sparks towards men. But then she meets Tommy and the sparks fly off the page. They have many obstacles to overcome, including Philippa’s struggles to fully accept Tommy. But all of this made it even more wonderful when they finally realized their love for each other.

I love stories with found families, and the Wynchesters are one of the best. It was so heartwarming to see Philippa experience the love, warmth, and acceptance that comes from a true family.

Thank you so much to the publisher for the ARC.
