Talk Sweetly to Me by Courtney Milan

Talk Sweetly to Me (Brothers Sinister, #4.5)

by Courtney Milan

Nobody knows who Miss Rose Sweetly is, and she prefers it that way. She’s a shy, mathematically-minded shopkeeper’s daughter who dreams of the stars. Women like her only ever come to attention through scandal. She’ll take obscurity, thank you very much.

All of England knows who Stephen Shaughnessy is. He’s an infamous advice columnist and a known rake. When he moves into the house next door to Rose, she discovers that he’s also wickedly funny, devilishly flirtatious, and heart-stoppingly handsome. But when he takes an interest in her mathematical work, she realizes that Mr. Shaughnessy isn’t just a scandal waiting to happen. He’s waiting to happen to her…and if she’s not careful, she’ll give in to certain ruination.

Talk Sweetly to Me is the final novella in The Brothers Sinister series.

I can never get enough Courtney Milan, and this novella certain didn't disappoint. Rose and Stephen were -- and I have to say this -- sweet. Stephen's math jokes had me snorting. Rose is, quite simply, amazing.

The only disappointing thing about this book is that it's my last unread Courtney Milan. *settles in for a wait*
