Courting Trouble by Kerrigan Byrne

Oliver Herber Books, 2020

⭐⭐⭐⭐(.5)

A second chance romance between a sexy surgeon and the woman who broke his heart? A woman who’s gone on to make a scandalous sexual reputation for herself? I’m in. Very, very in. Courting Trouble is book two in the Goode Girls series but fans of the Victorian Rebls series will see some familiar faces and names.

This book is gritty and raw and everything I’ve come to expect from a Kerrigan Byrne book. I loved it. Flew through it. Sometimes I’m in a mood where a dark and broken kind of romance novel is ALL I WANT FOR DAYS AND DAYS and KB is always, always just the one to deliver it.

Second chance isn’t my favorite trope but let me say I almost ALWAYS love it when there was some sort of betrayal/misunderstanding that tore the couple apart. So it worked for me here. This book does jump around in time a little bit but that worked for me too.

Thank you to Oliver Herber Books and Netgalley for the chance to read an early copy. I voluntarily read and reviewed this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
