“Another fabulous series by Sylvia McDaniel. I thoroughly enjoy her stories & writing style. All 3 books are witty & intriguing. They all have humor, passion, romance, & conflict.†~~ Amazon CustomerÂ
“I have never read a series of three books where the plot is continued and the murderer is revealed in the last book. You have to be careful to pick up on casually dropped clues in each book. It was an ingenious idea and very well written.†~~ Karo
“All in all, it was a good trilogy that I can recommend to those who enjoy spicy American Historical Romance.†~~ Sophia RoseÂ
