NetGalley Review: For the Love of the Bard by Jessica Martin

For the Love of the Bard by Jessica Martin

Rating:   ✩✩✩✩✩

Now this is a practically perfect contemporary romance.  Characters with

well developed personalities, banter that is actually cute/clever, realistic

conflicts and a reasonable HEA. Martin certainly knows this audience with

references to thrill book nerds, theater geeks, and romance lovers of all

flavors. The puns are amazing! Hitting all your favorite romance tropes

while also carrying a plot that even the most stringent literary snobs might

call “women’s literature,*” this fun story of going home, growing up and

moving forward will make a fantastic summer read. 

*How much do we hate that term? As if anything that centers women can’t be true literature…but enough on that salty tangent.
