Her Lessons in Persuasion

"Disclaimer: I won a copy of this book during a Goodreads giveaway, and this is my honest review. "Her Lessons in Persuasion" is a wonderful story centered around a incredibly independent and extremely intelligent young women who finds herself misunderstood and out of place because the times she's living in does not celebrate a woman like her outright yet. Thankfully, through a series of unexpected events, she finds herself surrounded by individuals who support her fiery spirit in all its glory!!! Best of all, she discovers what she truly wants and chases after those dreams with a devilishly handsome gentlemen in tow, with all the love and support one could desire and more!!! I truly loved and enjoyed this book!!! It was a mildly spicy read. If you are seeking out an extra spicy read, then this will not be that book. However, if you enjoy light-hearted tender historical settings, with intelligent characters, and the natural progressions of romantic encounters between characters, then this is the perfect read you've been looking for! I love how it is realistic in the ways the characters interact with each other, and I love all of the characters so much, even the ones that give the main characters a hard time. All in all, as someone who adores historical fiction, this book truly resonated with me, and I found myself squealing and kicking my legs so much through this book! I laughed so very much, too!!!"

"3.5/5 ⭐️<br/><br/>- Headstrong fmc <br/>- Mmc that’s in a book club <br/>- Slow burn <br/>- Fake relationship<br/>- Fmc in stem <br/>- Found family <br/><br/>This was an okay historical romance, I enjoyed reading for the most part though it was slow sometimes. Both main characters in this book are very smart and have to fake date to try to get a suitor for the Wilhelmina(fmc) so she can get married. Wilhelmina is very smart and strong female who doesn’t want to get married and instead wants to explore astronomy and the stars forever. Out mmc Bram is a barrister who is a rule follower but agrees to fake court Wilhelmina. They obviously start having feelings for each other and bond in their love for books and stem. <br/><br/>This book was fun I enjoyed the characters so much. I loved that there was a mmc that loved reading fiction and romance books and got the fmc to also love fiction. I also liked that both characters were virgins because it’s normally an experienced male character and naive fmc. The found family that Bram had with his adopted brothers was so fun and I hope they each get a book. Overall this was good read."
