This was a fun first of a series. The characters are likeable and relatable.… (mere)

Enjoyed the story a lot. Some of my favorite stories are those that use facts to tell a fictional story. This is the story of Dr. Delaney McPherson; Laney to her friends; a criminologist whose friend has been killed. Laney gets caught up in findingo what happens to her friend. Along the way she meets Jake whose foster brother is missing and Jake whom Jake is searching for. Together they come across a conspiracy that includes fallen angels and a dirty politician. When I purchased this book I was excited because I love Jane Austen and was interested in her life. I was disappointed that the majority of the book seemed to be about the books Jane had written rather than her life. I admire the passion that Ms. Frost must have that compelled her to write this story it might have been better to just continue to enjoy the stories and research into the regency period.

There a a few editing issues but not really enough to be distracting. This is the first of a series but that too I enjoyed as it could stand alone and had a clear ending.… (mere)
