I absolutely adored the story plot and characters! It was warm and funny and a bit scary in parts, but both main characters were charming. I would have given 5 across the board if there had been less profanity and fewer graphic sex descriptions. I’m not a prude and have nothing against homosexuals. The story..
I thoroughly enjoyed this one! Kit and Percy are lovely characters with a fun, engaging dynamic. A wig-and-rouge-wearing aristocrat planning highway robbery and a hardened criminal running a coffee shop–yes, sign me up! They’re a delight. Percy’s child-like responses to cake and praise really endear me to him. Kit’s total inability to lie (but attempting..
4.5 The epilogue really pushed this story up a notch for me, I loved it! I don’t necessarily need an epilogue for every book I read, but sometimes they can be the icing on the cake, and in the case of The Mysterious and Amazing Blue Billings that’s exactly what it was! Don’t get me..
The story it’s self was great, but, I could do without all the F bombs and the explicit sex. I don’t think all of that was necessary. It could have been better without it. Call me a prude, but I had to skip 2 chapters because of that.
Review from Fame and Fortune →

The point of view changes on a dime that I kept having to rewind to figure out who I am hearing fromnow:..
Review from Cutie and the Beast →
I was pretty sure I’d enjoy this & I enjoyed it even more than I thought I might. It’s very funny, charming, and unpredictable (beyond the happy ending one can expect from a proper romance – it’s the getting there that’s the battle), with all kinds of interesting side characters and mythical, magical lore. David..
I should have realized it is about gay men. I found out in chapter one
Review from Forbidden Bonds →
In ‘Blood Laws’, it seemed Tom was a d—, but it turns out he had his reasons, so I end up coming around to him in this one. I also very much enjoy Amelia’s point-of-view as it confirms some theories I formed from the glimpse of her I was provided in book 1. It’s a..
Review from The Queer Principles of Kit Webb →
Joel Leslie is a genius and this book is a warm bath of m/m Regency goodness. Five stars all around.
Review from Cronin’s Key II →
Another great book with Cronin and Alec, I have so much fun with them I beginning to feel like Eiji sincerely, but it’s just that they are so fun. I love how the author actually brings a little history alive too from any part of the world and legends as they say sometimes have something..
