This is the 2nd in the Dangerous Damsels series. Charlotte the heir to the head of the Wicken League or due to prophecy.
When the British Museum opened a exhibition on Beryl Black and her amulet, it is stolen. Charlotte goes to search for it all the while showing up in the same places as a handsome pirate, so they decide to work together. One thing to know pirates and witches, they do not get along. Well they normally don’t these two however can’t seem to get enough of eachother. The banter between these two which is so proper yet very inappropriate is so 👌 The public house with the last room too, wow now that changed the course of their relationship and they were very practical about it lol. Loved it.
I love how Charlotte’s inner conscience is either Lizzy Bennett, Anne Elliott or Fanny Price and all of her experiences were interpreted through Janes books. Honestly I’m pretty sure a lot of us have these characters in our head.
These books are so whimsical and magical with the flying houses, pirates and witches. Very proper witches that still have to hide cause they are still persecuted.
Though there was a bit of something with a witch hunter and a witch and I hope you expand on that one lol. That seemed volatile like they might murder eachother but also get very 🔥🔥lol.
Now off to get some “exercise” 😉
❓ Do you have any plans this weekend? Brooklyns birthday is on Saturday and we are having a music themed party she’s so excited. And she just lost her other front tooth so she also has no front teeth now 😂
Thank you berkleyromance and netgalley for the e-ARC for my honest and voluntary review.
Synopsis:
Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the teahouse…
Miss Charlotte Pettifer belongs to a secret league of women skilled in the subtle arts. That is to say—although it must never be said—witchcraft. The League of Gentlewomen Witches strives to improve the world in small ways. Using magic, they tidy, correct, and manipulate according to their notions of what is proper, entirely unlike those reprobates in the Wisteria Society.
When the long lost amulet of Black Beryl is discovered, it is up to Charlotte, as the future leader of the League, to make sure the powerful talisman does not fall into the wrong hands. Therefore, it is most unfortunate when she crosses paths with Alex O’Riley, a pirate who is no Mr. Darcy. With all the world scrambling after the amulet, Alex and Charlotte join forces to steal it together. If only they could keep their pickpocketing hands to themselves! If Alex’s not careful, he might just steal something else—such as Charlotte’s heart.
