Tomes of the Trade

I received a copy of this book from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. I really liked this! I read and also really enjoyed the first book in this series so I'm happy I enjoyed this one as well. I was a bit worried at the beginning that I wouldn't like this. It starts a bit slow and I thought the reason Thomas and Jane first get together was a bit rushed. However, the later part of this story really brought me around. I thought the author did a really good job developing the relationship between Jane and Thomas. Except for the oddly rushed initial reason for them getting together, the pacing of the relationship was really well done. I felt like I could actually see why they were falling for each other. Essentially, Thomas has to marry for money and Jane isn't wealthy enough and that's what is keeping them apart. That conflict is repeated frequently during this story, maybe a bit too frequently. However, I am always impressed with Frampton&#
