The Merchant and the Rogue (The Dread Penny Society #3) by Sarah M. Eden, Blog Tour

By Books Are Sanity!!! -

 





Synopsis:

 

London, 1865

Vera Sorokina loves reading the Penny Dreadfuls and immersing herself in tales of adventure, mystery, and romance. Her own days are filled with the often mundane work of running the book and print shop she owns with her father. The shop offers her freedom and an income, and while she is grateful for the stability it brings to her life, she often feels lonely.

Brogan Donnelly was born and raised in Ireland, but has lived in London for several years, where he’s built a career as a penny dreadful writer. He has dedicated himself to the plight of the poor with the help of his sister. But with no one to share his life with, he fears London will never truly feel like home.

Brogan and Vera’s paths cross, and the attraction is both immediate and ill-advised. Vera knows from past experience that writers are never to be trusted, and Brogan has reason to suspect not everything at Vera’s print shop is aboveboard. When a growing criminal enterprise begins targeting their area of London, Brogan and Vera must work together to protect the community they’ve both grown to love. But that means they’ll need to learn to trust each other with dangerous secrets that have followed both of them from their home countries.

        My Review:
        
Once again Eden weaves wonder and magic into a story that is unlike any other! There is not one, not two, but three stories in this one book! How does an author do that? I am amazed! Although it was a little tricky to keep up with all of the different story lines, I still enjoyed it. Brogan and Vera’s story was intriguing and full of mystery. Brogan had my heart, he is such a wonderful and thoughtful guy. With his Irish accent and penchant for looking out for others, who wouldn’t love him? He was absolutely delightful! And his sister Moirin and her fierceness, who wouldn’t want to be like her? Vera was strong and spunky, her courage was commendable. Eden has a way of writing characters that you just love and cheer for. I received a copy of this book for free; all thoughts and opinions are my own.       

Happy Reading!!!

Advanced Praise:

 

“Eden continues to build the overarching mystery and skillfully handles secrets and secret identities. Interspersed chapters of Penny Dreadfuls delightfully foreshadow the main action. Readers who enjoy chaste romances and also love a good mystery will enjoy the Dread Penny Society exploits and will look forward to what comes next.”
