The Countess by Claire Delacroix
What does one do with a villain-turned-heroine? Pretend that her past didn’t exist, of course!

What does one do with a villain-turned-heroine? Pretend that her past didn’t exist, of course!

Dour characters and florid prose can make such boring reading material.

Botany, spies, and nerdy girls – that’s a pretty interesting debut effort.

This book is a list of annoying overdone things in the genre.

Is that Tudor or Too Bore? Oh, I kill myself sometimes.

Don’t see any love here, but lots of hate and childish behavior.

Thief with a heart of gold reunites with her sister and gets sexual healing from the hero. We’ve all read that before.

The hero is just a slice of bread away from being an Ike Turner sandwich.

This is how you make a comfy, predictable read fun.

Oh, the adorable hero. Yucks, the heroine.
