#Review: LADY NOTORIUS by Theresa Romain



  3 of 5 stars

 Usually I enjoy Ms. Romain's books, but the third book, Lady Rogue, wasn't my favorite and neither is this book. It's been a year since I read the previous book and I don't remember the characters mentioned in the book so it was hard to figure out who was who. I did like Cass and George and the slow burn of their romance, but the mystery that they were trying to solve just dragged on and on. I would have liked to see more background for both Cass and George as well. Then, all of a sudden, after talking with her twin brother Charles, all the pieces click into place and she knows who the murderer is. It was all so rushed after dragging for so long.

The secondary romance between Charles and his informant was too quick. She's helping him with his cases while he recovers from a broken leg and within a few weeks, he's proposing to her. There were not enough scenes of these two together to really solidify the romance for me.

I'll certainly read the next book by Ms. Romain and I hope she spends more time on character development of the H and h before introducing any secondary plots.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for a fair and honest review and was not obligated to leave a review.
