Blog Tour: Wicked and the Wallflower by Sarah Maclean

By



When a man known only as Devil finds his way into her bedchamber and offers her his help in landing a duke, Lady Felicity Faircloth agrees. She might be a spinster, but she’s seen love in action and is willing to do whatever it takes to ensure that her future husband will love her beyond reason—even if it means she must make a deal with a man more dangerous than she could imagine.

Bastard son of a duke, and king of London’s darkest corners, Devil has made a lifetime of wielding power and seizing opportunity, and Felicity Faircloth is everything he needs to exact a perfect revenge. All he has to do is turn the plain little mouse into an irresistible temptress, set his trap, and destroy his enemy. If the girl is ruined in the process, so be it.  
Except there’s nothing plain about Felicity Faircloth, and soon it’s Devil who is trapped…along with his heart.

Rating/ Review: ☕☕☕☕☕( 5 cups for this wallflower totally coming unto her own, maybe with a lot of push from an unknowing bareknuckle bastard! )

This one had a darker hero, one that doesn't hesitate to use the female protagonist for his own agenda.  Like his namesake, Devil struck a bargain with Felicity, the wallflower of the novel.  He will make sure she gets what she wants, for a price to be mentioned once the deal is met.  What she is unaware of, she's just a pawn in the Devil's own revenge filled agenda.    I really loved this since this is still a romance, therefore, a happy ending is a given.  How you get from a point of ultimate betrayal to a love whose fundamental premise is trust is something to definitely look forward to.  Most of all I loved the progression of Felicity Faircloth, a princess who did not know her own worth until she met Devil and realized that what she thought would make her life perfect is so much more than acceptance from society but rather an acceptance of her worth as a female, who is valuable in every way.  Wicked and the Wallflower is a marvelous romance but for a woman to finally realize her worth despite what society wants her to believe is the best story ever.

The Secret Star by K.C. Finn

It was just another day for 35-year-old-turning-36-tomorrow Jeffrey Mercier, when he woke up on his flat in London in 1969. He went on with his usual routine, going to work for his boring job at Harlan and Locke. It did seem to be an ordinary day, until a young woman told him that he's gonna die in ten minutes if he won't go out of the building. Of course he didn't believe her, yet he found himself outside the building ten minutes later, the building blown up. He was saved again from a stampede by the same young woman whom he met ten minutes ago, introducing herself as Marie-Elizabeth Giraud. Marie was tasked to save Jeff from death and take him to the Time Agency, where he's going to be inducted as a time agent. Later that day, Jeffrey Mercier's life as Mister Mercy begins.

Blog Hop Giveaway:Switched by Cassie Mae

Switched by Cassie Mae was a funny and often frustrating read but highly entertaining. Kayla, Wesley, Reagan and Talon were all friends. Reagan and Talon were a couple while Kayla and Wesley, well they've been pining for these two since high school. Told from Kayla's point of view, she, dragging Wesley along hatches a plan to break the happy couple apart. Because as everyone can see Talon is her soulmate while Wesley is Reagan's. Thus starts the funs and the laughs and the musical chairs between the four. Kayla as a character was frustrating initially for me, I have no idea whether its because she was being an evil bestfriend to Reagan or she really was in love with Talon. I could not really hate nor empathize with her at the start. As the story progressed and the romance part began, her sudden self awareness becomes believable. The pace, the tone and style of writing was excellent. I can see that Cassie Mae has developed her own unique voice in the
