4.0

Cozy Murder with a side of Romance

Rating: 4.25/5

Loved this! There's a very 1980s cozy mystery vibe in the pacing. But with Regency! I really liked Mary and her insistence on being on the shelf. A fine foil for Henry's rather regimented mind.

The mystery itself was fun and took a few turns I didn't expect.

I'm absolutely looking forward to the next in the series. I only took 3/4th stars based on length. I would have loved about 10 more pages of Mary squaring up with the townsfolk. And the romance felt a bit squished in. Needed a bit more finesse. But I definitely like where the story is going.
