Review
The Copper and The Madam story is fun and full of surprises. I read it in one day, each time I put it down to do something I had to hurry up to get back to read the story.
This is a fun way to bring Victorian romance to readers by having a cop and madam romance together. Both Roy and Rea sparks sizzle on the pages and as a romance reader this is what I look for, it doesn’t matter if there is sex in the books if the characters connect in the right way you can feel the attraction right off the bat and these two had it for me. But believe me, this is an erotic romance so, you have plenty of sex in the story. LOL. The author also goes into some detail of the settings that is going on around them so all in all you get a good quick story.
My only wish for the story is that the author would have gotten more into the villains POV, so many authors miss these side characters and they just make the stories much more interesting to the readers.
I recommend this to anyone that would like a twist to Victoria romance.
