3.5 stars This is a re-read. My original review of the book can be found here. As of me posting this, the book is on sale for $0.99 at most e-book retailers. This book was such a disappointment to me when it came out, and as I mention in my original review, it was not an easy book for Ms. Milan to write, and felt a bit cobbled together and nothing really worked all that well as a result. With the next volume in the series just […]
This book is still perfection to me
This is a re-read. My original review can be found here. If you do read my original write-up of this book, you will see just how full of superlatives I was for this book.

This is one of the few books I can remember that happening with. There are very few books out there that […]

As it turns out, this wasn’t actually the final book in the series, as the novella Ms Milan intended for Free Marshall turned into a fourth novel, but this is nevertheless the book and the […]
Trying to avoid marriage by all means possible
This is my first re-read of this book (as it was my least favourite of The Brothers Sinister series). My original review can be found here. When I first read this book, I had very high expectations, because I always do when reading a Courtney Milan novel. They are more often than not little masterpieces, that utterly transport me away and make me feel all the feels. Oliver Marshall is a good supporting character in The Duchess War, but disappointed me as a hero in his own story. He does […]
