For fans of Deanna Raybourn, Tasha Alexander, and Andrea Penrose...

Step into 1897 Victorian London: Unravel Love and Intrigue with The Tabitha & Wolf Historical Mystery Series, where Mystery meets Romance with a splash of Humour.

Tabitha was used to being a social pariah. Could her standing in society get any worse?

Tabitha, Lady Chesterton, the Countess of Pembroke, is newly widowed at only 22 years of age. With no son to inherit the title, it falls to a dashing, distant cousin of her husband's, Jeremy Chesterton, known as Wolf. It quickly becomes apparent that Wolf had consorted with some of London's most dangerous citizens before inheriting the title. Can he leave this world behind, or will shadowy figures from his past follow him into his new aristocratic life in Mayfair? And can Tabitha avoid being caught up in Wolf's dubious activities?

It seems it's well and truly time for Tabitha to leave her gilded cage behind for good!

TRIGGER WARNING: But Good Writing 👍

Interesting story and protagonists that had my attention until the case started to revolve around child prostitution. I really wanted to keep reading but, as a new mom, that theme was too much for me.

I wish Audible would require authors to include potential triggers in the info about each book. It’s hard to get hours into a good story and then have to put it down due to disturbing content.

Other than that, I liked the series opener. I will be skipping to the next with hopes that the case is more “cozy” mystery.

Good to lose yourself for a few hours

The story is good. The narrator has a relaxing voice but not enough to put you to sleep. The characters are slightly One dimensional but they have enough personalty to carry through. I will say, when there is a difference of opinion between the the MFC and MMC there is little discussion. In most books, the back and forth between the man and woman is where we get to see their true nature and build some tension. Wolf and Tabitha are almost too agreeable in a way. In all, I enjoyed it but it wasn't a book that i struggled to pause when needed.

Heartful and criminals all in one.

Characters live and kill. Give and take. So much movement and events. Loved it so much.

Enjoyable story.

Liked the characters very much. Good people in any time period. Good narration. Believable ending.

A Wonderful Origin Story

I loved the delicious blending of modern themes on a days of yore story. There was suspense, romance and culture in the right amount to make me think of television series or Movies.

The narrator did a wonderful job giving it the feeling of a bedtime story. I like how the author delved in to the characters backgrounds and stories to make the interesting and come to life.

This was fun and even bought a few tears to my eyes. I was intrigued to discover who the murderer and villains were.
