Family Plot

When Lady Julia Fieldhurst is banished by her late husband's family (along with her three nephews), she wasn't expecting to stumble upon a body on the beach. Luckily, the body in question survives, but this leads to a new conundrum - is this truly the long lost daughter of the local Laird? Or is she ...

A Dead Bore

A Dead Bore is anything but. The second installment in Sheri Cobb South’s John Pickett mysteries is a sweet story filled with humor, emotion and endearing characters.

Of Paupers and Peers

Of Paupers and Peers is a perfectly charming book! It's sweet and light and everything that a regency romance should be. I really loved this one. Many years ago, Lord Robert Weatherly, the second son of the 4th Duke of Montford, fell in love with a most unsuitable woman. Despite pa ...

B
In Milady's Chamber

Sheri Cobb South’s new release is a gently charming novel – not surprising since Ms. South is known for her wry humor. What is surprising is that this funny and sweet book is a murder mystery. I’ve worked in a mystery bookstore for years and have been reading mysteries for even longer, and yes ...

The Cobra and the Lily is likely not a book with a huge built-in audience, but for specialized readers will love it. Those who like unique settings will be interested, since the book takes place in ancient Egypt. Those who like inspirationals or novelizations of familiar stories should take a peek b ...

A
French Leave

With French Leave, Sheri Cobb South wins, places and shows. She makes the hat trick, achieves the trifecta, threepeats. This book brings her Weaver trilogy to a delightful close, and I was charmed from the very first word. Lord Waverly (the villain in The Weaver Takes A Wife) has fallen on ha ...

A
Brighton Honeymoon

You say you're a reader who doesn't enjoy sequels with the main characters from one book playing a significant role in another? Make an exception for Brighton Honeymoon, Sheri Cobb South's delightful follow-up to last year's The Weaver Takes a Wife. Ethan Brundy and his bride Lady 'elen are back, an ...

B
Miss Darby's Duenna

Miss Darby's Duenna is a funny, clever story and beautifully written to boot. In spite of this, it was a tough book to grade. Despite its delightfully dry wit and elegent manner, it's not very romantic. At times it seems as much a takeoff on a Regency Romance as it is a Regency Romance. The hero is ...

A-
The Weaver Takes a Wife

Halfway through reading The Weaver Takes a Wife, I was tempted to stop and look again at the copyright notice, just to assure myself that I wasn't reading a long-lost and recently rediscovered work of Georgette Heyer's. This was a delightful read from start to finish, reminiscent of the writing that ...
