And then it has the same issue I have with the other books... Maybe if it was a full book and the relationship had more time to develop. I'm not huge fan of instaromance, even though there was some history with this but still. The saying: "Time heals all wounds." That mantra has been used so much, it's almost cliche but no less true than the first time it was uttered. Kate Noble took that quote and built a story of second chances around the wisdom of it. Cecelia has allowed her past mistakes to close her off from any chance at happiness. Her heart is barricaded in a water tight vault that will never be breached. When history seems to be repeating itself, she will do whatever it takes to protect the people she loves. Even face down the heartaches of her past. Miss Goodhue Lives For a Night is not all fun and games but Ms Noble mixes irony with humorous dialogue and irresistible bouts of maturity and romance. 3.5 Stars | Some Hot Steam A quick, light read, MISS GOODHUE LIVES FOR A NIGHT, is a fun second-chance romance that gives fans of Kate Noble’s fabulous Winner Takes All series a sweet literary diversion to enjoy until Margaret and Rhys’s full-length novel releases later this fall. Especially appealing to nostalgic and sentimental readers like myself who fell in love with previous characters from the series, I was happy to find bunches of them intertwined in this couple’s adventure—providing many of the story’s cheeriest moments. Though compressed and hurried as some novellas tend to be, Cecilia and Theo’s tale feels like a complete story and its central couple a pleasing match. And, while we aren’t given chapters upon chapters to get to know them fully, Cecilia and Theo’s personalities are inviting and their backstory compelling enough to invest in. Complimentary copy provided in exchange for an honest review. Cecilia is working as the vicarage schoolmistress. She lives with her sister and her husband, the vicar. She's been here for ten years, exiled because of a youthful indiscretion with Theo, a visiting student. The two fell in love and tried to run away together, but were separated. When her cousin, Eleanor, also runs away, Cecilia sees a chance for redemption and vows to find her in London. Of course, the first person she meets is Theo. This was a charming, second-chance romance. Both Cecilia and Theo have misconceptions about their previous elopement and separation. I enjoyed the story very much. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Pertenece a las seriesWinner Takes All (2.5)
Next in the witty, sexy Winner Takes All Regency series from Emmy winner Kate Noble, author of The Game and the Governess and writer of the wildly popular web series, The Lizzie Bennett Diaries. Cecilia Goodhue is a schoolteacher with a past, living with her sister and her husband in a tiny English village. Resigned to a quiet life, Cecilia is surprised when she finds out that her young cousin has run off with a man of no means. Cecilia had once been a teenaged girl who also fell for a young man's charms--only to be devastated by his betrayal. Determined to not let her cousin meet the same fate, she heads off to London to but is shocked when her investigation leads her right to the front door of the very man who broke her heart: Theo Hudson. Together, they reluctantly embark on finding her cousin and returning her to her family. During their searching in London, it soon becomes clear that they both remember their short-lived romance differently and perhaps now, years later, they have a fresh chance at love.
