A kissing book with SCIENCE!

The Lawrence Browne Affair by Cat Sebastian

July 22, 2019 by Malin Leave a Comment

4.5 stars #CBR11 Bingo: Science! One of the protagonists is a scientist and his scientific experiments plays an important part throughout the story. Official book description: Lawrence Browne, the Earl of Radnor, is mad. At least, that’s what he and most of the village believes. A brilliant scientist, he hides himself away in his family’s crumbling estate, unwilling to venture into the outside world. When an annoyingly handsome man arrives at Penkellis, claiming to be Lawrence’s new secretary, his carefully planned world is turned upside down. […]

All I needed was a little break, and a kick start with a book very likely to be right up my alley. The Lawrence Browne Affair is the second in a series by Cat Sebastian. Like The Soldier’s Scoundrel, it is a historical m/m romance set in Regency England. This time around we’re following Georgie Turner, brother of Jack from The Soldier’s Scoundrel, as he is on the […]

Cat Sebastian is now on my autobuy list.

December 30, 2017 by narfna Leave a Comment

(FYI as of posting this review, this book is currently $1.99 on Kindle.) I’ve only read two books by this author, but she’s already on my auto-buy list. Traditionally published LGBTQIA historical romance novels are hard enough to come by (like, I don’t actually think I’ve ever seen one before??), but so far both of the books I’ve read by Cat Sebastian have been some of the best romance novels I’ve read, period. They’ve both had everything I look for in a romance novel: interesting […]

    on Seven people go for a tour in a mysterious library housing a very rare book, and you can probably guess the rest.
    I was agog after reading that sentence. Could not read on for five minutes. I mean, wtf.

    “Skin covered finger bones”—that’s hilarious. This was a very satisfying review.

    No heist, but it still feels a little heist-y due to some heist-adjacent action.
