Their Viscountess by Jess MichaelsMy Rating: ✩✩✩✩✩
This series of novellas has been pretty hit or miss for me and this fifth installment wasn't amazing, but also was a fun read.
These are basically exactly as advertised. Why-choose-MMF-short stories that shortcut to "the good stuff" while a whisper of plot occurs in the background. This had potential for some fun plot featuring our heroine's escape from a terrible marriage, but that was brushed aside pretty quickly. The childhood connection did allow the characters to skip to the spice, though I feel like the sex scenes are somewhat repetitive from book to book. I didn't really feel the connection or chemistry that previous reads from Michaels have had, so it was hard to feel invested in this trio.
Overall though, if you want a fun, moderately spicy read for a quick escape to regency times- this is a perfect little pick-me-up. As a stand-alone it is a great romp assuming, just not as amazing a tale as readers may expect from Jess Michaels.
