Bobby Palmer is a new-to-me author, but I’d heard great things about his previous books, so I decided to give this new novel a whirl. I made a decision at the beginning of 2026 to read more from authors I hadn’t read before, and it has been a wholly positive experience.

As a long-time fan of Nicola May’s writing, it’s always exciting when she has a new book released. If you didn’t know, How Do I Tell You? (Link to my review) was one of my ’25 books of the year.

Having reviewed and blogged about each of this author’s books, I genuinely love receiving her messages asking me to help with her forthcoming releases. I was saddened to learn that Harlequin Books is closing its historical fiction imprint, so this is her final book for them. Thankfully, I believe Lissa will continue to write, whichContinue reading “ARC Review – Wedded to her Enemy Knight by Lissa Morgan @LissaMorganAuth #BookReview #PublicationDay #BookBlogger #HarlequinFiction #WarOfTheRoses #WeddedToHerEnemyKnight”
