Georgie and St. Just make the perfect couple. She is determined to do the right thing and he is determined to do right by her brother. What neither counted on was falling in love along the way. Jenna Jaxon continues to deliver a romance full of fun and mystery along the way.

I’m so disappointed. I was really excited to read this book. I have read a few of Jenna Jaxon’s books and I loved them. When I started this one, something seemed different about this one. Not necessarily a good thing. I felt like the writing didn’t flow nicely like her other works. Our main heroine, Georgina seemed likable but also flat for me. I really couldn’t connect with any of the characters really. I thought once the kidnapping was going on I would be more invested. I was getting a little more invested but the plot was dragging on for so long, I was like enough already. I like having the multiple perspectives but it didn’t make the story go any faster like it usually does for me. Then I started skimming and I was forcing myself to continue on which I hate to do but in case I am reviewing this one, I stayed on for a bit. With the dragging of the plot and disinterest in the characters, this one was a no go for me.

This story should be titled Too Much Ado About A Widow! I liked the story in the beginning but felt it dragged on towards the end. The author should have ended the book with Georgie and Rob sailing off and getting married in Scotland. The father’s men attacking St. Just’s place and the father demanding she marry Travers or get put in Bedlam was too much. I received an ARC from NetGalley for my honest review.

This book is a head shaker for sure, and not in a good way. I really wanted it to be. DNF but I felt obligated as I was reviewing it. It is completely ridiculous. The heroine, the hero, the secondary characters... honestly there isn’t one redeeming quality. It’s a shame because I like this author but this was a no for me. Thank you to netgalley for the arc.

3.5 stars

This is part of a series and I think it might have been useful to have read the three earlier books. I wasn't that keen on the heroine. She's gone back to her father because of her financial situation. The father seems just awful and I couldn't help but think she'd have been better getting a job! The Hero was a little 2 dimensional and the romance , for me, took too long to get going.


I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own

Much Ado About a Widow by Jenna Jaxon is the 4th book in The Widow’s Club Series. The story is a little far fetched yet charming! I enjoyed it very much. The characters were great! I absolutely loved Rob and Georgie. Their relationship was full of chemistry and mostly believable. My only issue was how the heroine confessed that she could never love another man the same as she loved her first husband. The hero seemed relatively unfazed by this fact and then fell completely in love with her anyways, despite knowing that and he did it without any insecurities. The heroine then falls so in love with him that her world pretty much revolves around him. Her original confession and how it was executed kind of took away from the believability a bit for me. Beyond that though, absolutely no criticism of the story. It’s well written, full of emotion, and kept my attention. All in all a pretty wonderful read. 4.5 stars.

Ugh....where do I start with this book. I have read books from this author that are far superior. This book was just plain silly. I absolutely disliked the heroine Georgina. She is so ridiculous and the hero Rob isn't much better. Then you have a host of other characters such as Lulu the dog that are there for nothing but comic relief. I'm not a fan of this book and I feel like I wasted my time reading it . This review a an ARC from Net Galley

I received an advanced reader’s copy in exchange for an honest review

A slow burn at first but built up to be pretty, uh, spicy 3.5 rounded up

A twisted tale of kidnap and a contract to marry a cur foiled by a second kidnap. The story begins to take off when the humor of the warring parties besets the principals. All is well that ends well with the widow making a love match and the cur facing his doom with more character than he showed initially. An enjoyable fast read.

I’ve really enjoyed this series. I liked Rob’s carefree attitude, but also his loyalty. Georgie was strong willed but also up for an adventure. While the constant back and forth of danger did start to drag a bit, I still loved the story. The chemistry between Georgie and Rob flared off the page. I can’t wait to read more by Jenna Jaxon

St. Just is a true hero. Not once but several times did he prove his heroism. Lucky for Georgie, who shows us that she's also able to save herself when needed. It's just more fun when you let a handsome pirate do the saving.
