Thank you for approving my request for this book. Unfortunately, he last few books from this author have really lost their magic for me, and they don't feel authentic to the time period. I have lost interest in reading anything from this author.

I love a story that makes you laugh. This is the last sister to get her happy ever after. I really enjoy this author's writing.

I have to say that I liked Hyacinth’s book significantly less than Violet’s. To me Hyacinth wasn’t an even character. She was kind of all over the place and I found it odd how inconsistent she was written, even with her growth during the story.

I liked Lachlan more than Hyacinth, but I thought they were an uneven match. I really couldn’t see their relationship working.

I did like the whole aspect of the story with Lachlan, his siblings and the brother he didn’t know existed. I wish that we had gotten more of that relationship, but alas it was not to be.

The third book in The Somerset Sisters series a well written Regency story that kept me turning pages, I will be reading this book again. Lachlan Ramsey and Hyacinth Somerset do not get off to a great start. There is suspense, drama, a mystery, and romance. I want to read more in this series.

I received a free copy of More or Less a Temptress in exchange for an honest review. This was definitely one of the better historical romances I've read recently. Anna Bradley did a great job capturing the reader's attention with a family secret on her deathbed. The characters were well written, and the pace was perfect. I would definitely recommend this book to friends and family.

This book was fun! I haven't read the other books in the series, so I don't know how it compares in that way. I read this after reading a couple of not so great books, so it was a nice reprieve. Lachlan was a bit of a butt at times, but I felt that he really shaped up by the end. I found Hyacinth incredibly sweet. I also identified with her struggles with anxiety. All in all, a great read with a great romance!

Great story. Lovely characters. Glad to revisit past characters from other books in the series. Recommend

The youngest Somerset sister, Hyacinth, is at the first event of her Season, and causes a huge scandal when she calls a stranger "a murderer". The charges are unfounded and untrue and the affair soon becomes more complicated when the stranger, Lachlan Ramsey, reveals that his brother is her brother-in-law. He has traveled to London from Scotland with his brother and sister and needs to protect them and their reputation from any scandal. It was heartwarming to discover that Hyacinth could stand up to others and claim what she wanted.

Thanks to the publisher and to NetGalley for an ARC; all opinions are my own.

Thank you for allowing me to read this book. It was a pure joy. I loved how Hyacinth broke out of her shell for love. I loved how Lachlan was a gentle Beast when it came to her. I’m anxious to hear Isla’s story

Somersets don't make love easy, but they sure do keep society interested. More or Less a Temptress is Hyacinth's turn to shine. Instead she stirs up a ruckus that could impact more than her reputation. It could end with her losing her heart. Always bold, never boring and hard to resist, this group of sisters make showstopping fun.

I’ve read the previous books in the series and I enjoyed them, but I really didn’t connect with Hyacinth in More or Less a Temptress. I just think it was her personality that didn't appeal to me and how her family treated her. I did like LachIan a little more. I finished reading the story hoping I would change my mind, but I just couldn’t connect with Hyacinth. I did like Ciaran and Isla and I look forward to their stories. I also like how the author leaves the passionate love scenes towards the end.

Mayhem on the ballroom floor!

When Scotland and England meet on the field of love there's always a bit of ruggedness, duplicity and in romance novels, sweet sweet endings. The surprising Miss Hyacinth Somerset meets Lachlan Ramsay and right from the beginning all goes dreadfully wrong. What with Hyacinth swooning and calling Lachlan a murderer the Ton's all a titter, and it seems the reclusive Hyacinth's debut is doomed from the start. And so are Lachlan's chances to bring his sister into society. So is Hyacinth more ... or less a temptress? And just why did Lachlan leave Scotland?
Once again a delightful regency romance from Anna Bradley.

A NetGalley ARC

More or Less a Temptress is the third book in The Somerset Sisters. I am a fan of Anna Bradley and the sisters, but Hyacinth did not entice me whatsoever. The reader is led to believe that Hyacinth's entire life had been muted, uninspired until the arrival of Lanchlan. Where was her validation of self? Lanchlan changes everything for Hyacinth. She seems to awaken from a colorless realm, as she falls in love with Lanchlan. I thought Lanchlan was a fine character, but I did not believe the two made a great match. Although this book was not my cup of tea, I believe fans of the series will still find it interesting to delve deeper into Hayacinth's story.

I was hesitant to read this book with complaints about Hyacinth Somerset and the family that coddled her. While it was annoying how her fami!y assumed Hyacinth to be extremely fragile, it made Lachlan's belief in who she truly was on the inside, all the more enduring. I loved the Ramsey's and the interaction between the siblings. Their brother Finn had the same qualities and I was glad to see him gain an immediate fami!y. I only wish Hyacinth's family showed more belief in her along her journey of self discovery.

Ms. Bradley is one of my favorite historical romance writers. However, while reading this book I felt disconnected from the main characters. The love interests were flatter than her other novels. The female leads wishy-washyness was annoying. She was just too simpering for my liking as the lead.

Hyacinth Somerset is a delicate female who is incapable of being in any kind of real situation and must be sheltered to the max - At least this is what her family believes. Between her overprotective grandmother and sisters, even if she wanted to attempt full season, they feel she’s not emotionally capable and she bends to their will. Lachlan and his siblings are forced to move from Scotland to England and find the brother they didn’t know they had. When they crash a ball at their new brother’s home, a social disaster occurs and they think they will be turned away. Once Lachlan is around Hyacinth more and more, he sees the strong-willed woman her family has been wilting.
This was a cute story. Watching Hyacinth slowly come out of her shell was an original and interesting experience. I thought the author painted society a little harsher than is usually seen in these kinds of books, but overall a good read.
**I voluntarily read and reviewed this book

This book is the third book in the Somerset sisters series. I absolutely adored the previous books in this series and had the same expectations from this book. Sadly, I was a little disappointed with the characters and their romance. I had loved Hyacinth's character in the previous two books. She had come across as spunky and brave. But in this book, it took her a long time to find her courage and spine and to come in into her own. She is overly protected by her family and it made her seem a lot weaker. I liked Lachlan's character but the romance between Hyacinth and Lachlan felt a little lackluster. Even though this book disappointed me, I am looking forward to the upcoming book from this author as her romances always leave me swooning and going back in for a re-read again.

* I received this ARC from NetGalley and the publisher for an honest review*

3.5 Stars. I really enjoyed Lachlan and Hyacinth's romance. The characters were engaging and came off as very genuine without being over the top. I most appreciated Lachlan's actually seeing Hyacinth as opposed to her family and how they treated her. The story was well written and I will read more from Ms. Bradley in future.

This is the last book in the Somerset Sisters series. This is the story of Hyacinth, the youngest and the quietess of the five girls. She's been babied and over protected, since her parents passed away. She's extremely shy, so making her coming out and being the center of attention is very difficult for her.
Enter Lachlan Ramsay. He is a big, tall Scot who is escaping his past. He is searching for a brother he never knew existed until recently. He is looking to protect his half brother and sister from his past.
When Lachlan and Hyacinth meet, at her come out ball, let's just say they cause quite a stir.
The story progresses from there rather smoothly. I think Anna Bradley has a way of describing the characters, the events, the feelings being felt that engrosses you in the story.
I really enjoyed reading this book. I think this will probably cross over and be the start of a new series, The Ramsay family.

Anna Bradley did it again! Just love these characters. Lachlan is a very torture hereo. So if you like torture hero this is a much read. I loved the new Scottish characters that came in he book. I can’t wait for the next book which is a new series with the lachlan’s Half sister Isla!
