The Navigator

 

Clean Read; re-imagining of the Peter Pan story told from Wendy Darlings point of view
I have to confess, I am late getting this review up, but this was a gorgeous re-telling of the Peter Pan story from a dynamic, adventurous, determined, couragous Wendy Darling. I haven't read the first book in this series, but was able to read this and enjoy this without doing so. However, that being said, I will go back and read it to get the beginning at some point.
This is an adventurous, fantastically detailed visit to Neverland, with the main characters you know and love, but from Wendy's courageously brave and determined point of view. She is a strong character, the setting is detailed and fantastically imagined, and the battles, worries, adventures and journey that they go on while tracking Blackheart's ship was intense, fantastical, and so well described! I am ready for the next adventure in this series!

To Win a Lady's Heart Sian A. Bessey GoodReads Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Romance, clean, period; historical setting Lady Joanna and Sir Lukas' story was so well done! Intrigue, suspense, romantic, tender moments, along with a well depicted setting and dilemma in the story. Loved all the little pieces that wove together to make this so realistic. Even the animals in the story were so well done. The minor characters were so well done, so many things that made this a very good read. Joanna and Lukas' moments were so very sweet. The looks, the realizations, the final choice were all so well done.  Along with this, Joanna's character, her kindness, caring for others including those of lower class, her dogs, the people around her who were struggling, she was such an honorable character. Lukas and Sir Edwyn the same, strong character, morals, caring for others, and honor commitments, noble, and dutiful. They were perfect examples of how a noble should comport them...

Lovely, clean period romance! "Promised" by Leah Garriott Romance, clean; period; Proper Romance Clean period romance. Margaret and Gregory's story was a lovely fall. A wager leads Gregory to seek Margaret's attention and affections. Margaret, still hurting from a failed engagement (she broke it off when the lack of fidelity of her fiance became apparent), has decided to choose a suitor where her heart will not be engaged in the marriage to keep it safe, and her secure in a situation. After spending time with Gregory (Lord Williams) in different setting, they gradually both have their hearts opened to each other. Lovely settings, sweet, tender moments, a bit of sass and fun, along with kindness, courtesies, gifts, and support as Alice, Margaret's sister struggles with illness. Solid side characters, setting, and moments make this a gorgeous, lush read. Loved it. I received a copy from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for a fair and hone...
