Pertenece a las seriesThe MacGalloways (2)
Lady Charity MacGalloway likes little dogs, long country walks, and summer cloudbursts, but she wants absolutely nothing to do with the Season or the pompous heirs trolling the marriage mart. Harry Mansfield is not only the town of Brixham's butcher, he's also a boxer, and he's about as far removed from polite society as any man can be. But when Lady Charity steps into his shop, she manages to take everything he thinks he knows about women of quality and turns it upside down. Her Ladyship not only employs him to repair her stable's roof, she cunningly negotiates an agreement where Harry's sister receives reading lessons in exchange for very surreptitious boxing lessons. All goes well until Charity is spotted attending one of The Butcher's fights. Immediately, her family shuffles her to London to mitigate any hint of scandal. As a new Season begins, Charity does not ally herself with the hopeful young ladies looking for a match. Neither does she want flowers, sonnets written in her honor, nor carriage rides through the park. She desperately desires Harry Mansfield, regardless of if he labors as a butcher or a boxer, and she will stop at nothing to make him hers. Contains mature themes.

The MacGalloways #2
Great addition to a what is proving to be a fun and interesting series – Loved Charity and Harry and watching them find their happily ever after though the odds were against them.
What I liked:
* I found myself laughing and smiling and always enjoy a book that puts a smile on my face
* Charity: sister of a nobleman, , independent, charitable, empathetic, capable, curious, impulsive, caring, taken by the butcher…in more ways than one
* Harry: butcher, boxer, handyman, strong, loves and cares for his mother and sister, family oriented, has a secret, drawn to Charity, suddenly finds himself and earl
* The way Charity and Harry made me laugh at times…
* Harry worrying more about Charity than she worried about herself
* The heroic acts Harry managed
* That Charity saw through the people under her care and managed to remove the one that needed to go
* That I felt Harry and Charity really did “get” one another
* The way the two were able to be together…probably a bit of a fairy tale that it all worked out so well but a nice one for them both
* The way the MacGalloway family cared for one another…although the mother was a bit stuck in expectations
* Knowing that there are more books in the series to look forward to
What I didn’t like:
* The thuggish behavior of the cheating boxer
* The lines drawn between classes and how they could have impacted the relationship between Charity and Harry
* Having to wait for the next book in the series
Did I enjoy this book? Yes
Would I rad more in this series? Yes
Thank you to Oliver Heber Books and BookSprout for the ARC- This is my honest review.
