"Really good premise with her being an independent game board inventor who doesn't want to give up her independence just to marry some to-be duke. The banter between the two main characters (Pandora and Gabriel) is amazing. I haven't read the book with Gabriel's parents Evie and Sebastian, which I plan on doing because I saw here that is was one of the better ones of the series. The love scenes in this book were top-notch and the Irish gang-bomb plot was really inventive. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 out of 5 stars is because the ending kind of wrapped up quickly with the bomb plot."
"I loved all the books in this series. This one did not disappoint. I cannot remember what scandal brought the two together but the ensuing course they take is unforgettable. I honestly didn’t know how the author was going to write a story for this character but she did and it’s exactly what it needed to be. Super cute, funny and entertaining."

"I would like to state that the whimsey of Pandora's character has literally put her in my top tier favorite book heroines. She is childlike in so many ways, kind of fae in character, and I absolutely love that Gabriel wouldn't change that about her. I adore that this book shows you more about loving someone through the struggles and how to work together to make a relationship work. It's more of what happens after that HEA that so many romances cut off. I think this may be my favorite yet from The Ravenels series."
