BREE WOLF is a USA Today bestselling author and award-winning word wizard, who is rarely seen without a book in hand or fingers glued to the keyboard.
Miss Hawkins has a list, and she's checking it twice. Care to join the adventure?
More than anything in the world, MISS REBECCA HAWKINS hates boredom. Boring gentlemen. Boring balls. Boring strolls in the park. Boring picnics. The list is endless.
So, in secret, Rebecca has been working on a list of her own. One that is far from boring. One that will land her in trouble if her aunt and uncle ever found out. One that would ruin her chances of finding a suitable husband…which is all the more reason to check off each and every point on it (after all, who would want a suitablehusband?).
And then one night, as though Fate heard her silent plea, a stranger climbs in through her window…and Rebecca does not hesitate.
As an American, ZACHARY CASWELL knows very little about English high society nor does he care to know more. However, when a family heirloom is stolen, he is forced to remain in England longer than he intended…
…and crosses paths with a woman, who is a far cry from the simpering misses he encountered thus far.
Bewitched by Miss Hawkins’ daring spirit, Zach accepts her help in locating his missing heirloom while offering his own assistance in return. Together, they work through her list, crossing off point after point, until Zach realizes he wishes there were more.
All of a sudden, returning to America is no longer a priority. All of a sudden, Zach loathes a particular English lord for a very particular reason. All of a sudden, Miss Hawkins is all he can think about.
Perhaps…

A lovely slow paced and heart felt romance, great connection between Rebecca and Zachary. They are definitely a great match and make their way to a wonderful happy ending.
I love the characters in this book! Miss Becca Hawkins is strong, willful and determined. When her uncle determines to have her married to "Lord Tedious", she makes a list of things she truly wants to do in her life. When she meets Lord Pembroke, cousin to her best friend Eugenie, she asks him to help her complete her list. WONDERFUL!
Oh, how I remember Miss Rebecca Hawkins and the antics she got up to in "How to Tame a Beastly Lord" and what she gets up to in her own story!
This time what went on in that previous story is told from her point of view as well as her own beautiful romance.
As the title hints to someone climbing into a Lady's Tower, I think I can safely say at there is much climbing in and out of upstairs windows in this new story.
Bree Wolf has outdone herself with this tale. I found it full of very amusing sections, parts where I thought that I could easily fall in love with the Hero, (move over 'Becca'), and loving the 'one-step-ahead-ness' that Rebecca always seemed to be in.
I loved the way that Zach really had to keep the brakes on sexually as far as Becca was concerned and that he really did. What that poor man went through!
This is a book not to be missed and I hope you find it as enjoyable as I did.
Well! If you want to have fun, laugh, snigger and totally enjoy a story, then this is the one to read.
I have so enjoyed it!
It has the perfect balance of hilarity, seriousness and how to deal with familial invasions into a newly wedded couple's lives.
As for the young couple's characters, I cringed many a time on the behalf of Cora and Liam for the utter frustration and totally ridiculous situations which they kept having to deal with. Their patience, until there was none left, was remarkable and the individual strengths which both of them had was just perfect.
I loved this story so much and am more than happy to leave you my voluntary review having just finished reading an early copy of this delightful book.
#1 Once Upon a Devilishly Enchanting Kiss 5* - Ever since Louisa overheard a conversation at a ball, she has hated Phineas Hawke with a passion. It doesn’t help that every time she sees him he teases and needles her, and now his brother has wed her cousin they are thrown together even more.
After a bad judgment call on Louisa’s part leads to anguish and fear for a sibling, her guilt nearly breaks her but an unexpected outburst provides Phineas with an opportunity to gain her trust, and perhaps her affection. Highly recommended romance.
#2 Once Upon a Temptingly Ruinous Kiss 5* - Leonora is haunted by the incident which happened months ago but knows she must rejoin society. On first meeting Drake Pemberton her reaction to him is similar to any man outside of her family but something changes, he seems to understand her and quickly becomes someone she feels safe with. As time goes by he helps her feel stronger and regain her self-confidence. Can there be more between them? Loved the plot, the interaction between the family and the final denouement when Leonora stands up for herself even at great personal cost.
#3 Once Upon an Irritatingly Magical Kiss 5* - A delightful enemies to lovers romance. Christina is determined to protect her friend from an unwanted marriage but how far will she go and what will she do when she discovers he is not the ogre she thinks? Loved this story, the characters, the family element and the adorable little girl Samantha.
#4 Once Upon a Devastatingly Sweet Kiss 5* - Impetuous, stubborn and wildly independent, Lady Harriet is determined to never lose her identity by submitting to marriage. However her love for mending hurt animals has found a new focus on the rigid, lonely Duke living next door to her sister. Bradley Jackson, Duke of Clements closed his emotions off many years ago, if ‘Harry’ bring him back to life, will her life change also?
#5 Once Upon an Achingly Beautiful Kiss 5* - This is both a friends to lovers and a second chance romance - two of my favourite tropes combined. Having read all the previous books in this series, it was obvious that Grandma Edie had been deliberately keeping men from courting her for a reason. I suppose it was a little slow in the reader finding out exactly why Kit had left six years previously but the ending was truly moving and beautiful. I read the entire story in one sitting.
#6 Once Upon An Accidentally Bewitching Kiss 4* - A Sweet Second Chance. One kiss changed everything but too late to stop Nora marrying another. Now Nora is a widow but Troy is loath to risk his heart again and in Nora’s mind there is an insurmountable problem to their ever being together. However neither of them have taken Grandma Edie into account!
