I really liked this one. The characters had to overcome so much it was really good and sweet. And I love that these are on the shorter side.

A Lady Most Intrigued is a wonderful story that I loved and read far too quickly because it was that good. This time, we have a tale that is based around The Frog Prince.
Set in an English mill town during the Regency era, Ward successfully brings that world to life – one many of us in England will have learnt about in school. We encounter Hannah Sheppard, daughter of the mill owner who feels misplaced in her society-driven world, and John Ingham who has a loyalty to his family and whilst accepting of his place in the world also seems as though he doesn’t quite fit. Both are the metaphorical square pegs in the story – not ever quite fitting into where they are to be.
I loved them both, and how they meet is right out of a classic romance and from that moment the two are drawn to one another. The other characters in the story give depth to A Lady Most Intrigued, from James, who works with John and voices the realities of how hard millwork was and how hard they tried to fight for safety and health for all with strikes across whole towns of England, to Millie the quiet sister of James whose cough and ill-health is a harsh reminder that cotton items came at a horrific cough.
‘...I work at a cotton mill where it snows every day.’
Then there’s Lady Catherine who only cares about her wealth, place in society and whilst aware of what she does to others. Sees them as items to replace and inconveniences which is unfortunately historically correct, and I found Ward’s acknowledgement in this story of the bad elements of the time and setting despite it being fictional and a love story.
The romance is gentle, and the connection between Hannah and John is tangible. Seeing their story unfold is sweet, but it’s the mystery the two have to unravel that had me unable to place the book down. Each string of the mystery is well done and takes both the reader and the couple onto the next in a captivating manner.
I loved this one, and this series is so good as each author gives us a unique spin on the infamous tales the Grimm brothers collated. I also loved that the Grimm story this is spun from is mentioned in A Lady Most Intrigued which had me smiling.

A Lady Most Intrigued by Jenni Ward, is the 4th book in A Grimm Regency Tale series.
All books are novellas set in the regency period based on a fairytale. This time the fairytale is The Frog Prince.
We are following Hannah and John. Hannah lives with her horrible mother in Frogmore. John works in the mill and lives with his ma as well.
They meet one night when Hannah decides to take the boat out on the lake but falls in the water. John happens to be nearby and saves her. During her fall she loses a heirloom in the water and the next day John helps her retrieve it.
This heirloom starts the unraveling of a lot of secrets about Hannah, John, their family and Frogmore. Will they be able to uncover all the secrets?
I gave it 4 stars because it was a fast fun read, even though it had some nice twists, I saw them coming so I wasn't as surprised! If you want an easy, quick read this book and the rest of the series is for you!

Oh my this one had so many twist that I couldn't believe it!!! I did not see it coming at all! Once you thought you heard the end of it. BAM another one! It kept you in your toes and I love it!! This one has mystery, betrayal, and so much more. You never thought you would read in such a short book. But the author did such a good job at making everything flow and keeping you reading! I think you guys should give this a read!

I am in awe of how Jenni Ward snuck this mystery into so few pages. Yes, the plot is a bit predictable and once I had all the pieces it was pretty easy to put it together. But it was not what I was expecting from a retelling of The Princess and the Frog at all. I honestly wasn't sure if it was possible to retell that story without magic, but it worked! And let's be real, John and Hannah are adorable, what else do you need??

Loved it! The interactions between Hannah and John were really good and really intense. I loved their slow build into trust and affection for each other. Jenni's take on The Frog Prince tale makes it even more interesting to read.
If you enjoy regency era romances, then this is the perfect book for you!

dark but worth the read
This story is much darker than the two others in the series I’ve read (elves and the shoemaker and the brother and sister) but it pulled me in. The stark poverty, the mill strike, the effects of cotton lung, even the lack of love in the manor house work together to create a world that feels ready to splinter. Despite a scenario that, if I tried to explain it to my husband, would make him roll his eyes and complain it’s just so far-fetched it’s silly, the story works. Lady Catherine is a cold-blooded horror and it makes sense she’s done cold-blooded, horrible things. Hannah is naive and likeable, actually quite unlike the haughty princess in the original fairytale. John is delightful. I like his commitment: to care for his Ma, to help when he can, to keep his word even when it’s uncomfortable.
I did subtract one star because several points do not make sense (for one, why did Lady Catherine leave her brother’s study untouched? For another, why wasn’t Maggie simply dispatched like the others?). Also, the end was far too abrupt and easy. I thought the story was well-written enough that it deserved to have a more cohesive ending, even if it did set it further apart from the others in the series.

This is another fun, whimsical entry in the Grimm Regency tale series. It is light and sweet with an interesting mystery to puzzle out. With inspiration coming from the tale of the Frog Prince, there is as you would expect such events as a ball dropped into a body of water and some twists in the identities of the characters. It is not overly evocative of the era in which it is set, in fact you could almost claim it was set anytime between about 1750 and 1850 and there would be very little you could point to in the text to dispute the claim or narrow down exactly when all this was supposed to be happening (presumably the 1820s as anything earlier feels a little too early for widespread industrial strikes and anything later is starting to edge out of the Regency era).

This is the first book I have read from Jenni Ward. It is a retelling of the Grimm Tales the Frog Prince. It was enjoyable and well written.
Hannah Sheppard wants more from her life. John Ingham dreams of getting away from his life and figuring out what there is to live. These two meet after a late-night rescue. Hannah decided to take the boat out one night and ends up in the water. John recues her and things grow from there. But a dark secret may change everything for them. Will these two figure out the secret before it is too late for either of them? Once Hannah and John take off on their adventure the story gets really interesting. Being on the adventure with them learning what their lives could be like and the feelings these two have for each other. I loved each and every moment these two share. Two different worlds brought together by one huge secret.

This was a sweet Regency non-magical twist on The Frog Prince. It has mystery, suspense, humor, sadness, joy, love, a damsel in distress, a “knight” in not so shining armor, secret identities, betrayal, and found family! If any of this is your cup of tea, grab this book now!
The plot is slightly twisty. Plenty of mystery, lies, and surprises. It will hook you and keep your reading to find out what happens. You’ll laugh and bite your nails. I loved every minute of it! A fun Regency fairytale mystery.
The main characters are sweet, caring, and determined to find the truth. I loved seeing them go through the rollercoaster of emotions as they untangle the past to find answers for the present as a team.
Overall, this was a charming twist on a classic. It is its own story with hints and nods to the Grimm Fairytale. Worth the read and perfect to read with your family or by yourself.

Genre: Regency Romance, Sweet Romance, Fairy Tale Retelling, Historical Romance
Spice Level: Kissing
A LADY MOST INTRIGUED retells the fairy tale of the Princess and the Frog. Yep, there's a golden ball that the "frog" retrieves. But it spins off from there.
Things to look forward to:
- Factory workers vs gentry
- Mystery
- Mayhem
- Family secrets
- Lies
- Moral dilemma
I really can't say too much without spoiling things for you.
But I can say I loved the main characters. Hannah is thoughtful and earnest. She isn't caught up in society like her mother. John is loyal, calm and collected, and noble—a man of his word.
Exploring class distinction is clear in this book and is a continuing problem.
I highly recommend this book. It's a lot of fun to see how the mystery plays out.
Happy reading!

A Lady Most Intrigued
A Grimm Regency Tale
By Jenni Ward
This was as intriguing a read as the title indicates. Hannah Sheppard doesn't fit the mold her mother tries to force her into. It is this very non-conformity that brings about her meeting with John Ingham. Falling into a pond while in a ball gown is not best way to meet a man but it is what it is. And she did drop the forbidden golden ball in the water. John agreed to come back and find it for her.
John has always longed for more than the life of a cotton mill worker. But he needs the pay to support his mother. Then, the workers organize a strike, demanding better pay and better work conditions.
The potential hardships of a strike allow John and Hannah the opportunity for more interactions. Hannah uses this unexpected opportunity to seek answers. Answers she could never expect to get from her mother.
I really enjoyed this book, which is based on The Frog Prince and has elements involving the cotton mill industry, which brought to mind Elizabeth Gaskell's North and South. The weaving together of these vastly different pieces was expertly done to create a unique and enjoyable story with romance, mystery, and a proper villain. I highly recommend this newest Grimm Regency tale, which was most delightful.
I was provided an advance copy of this title with no expectations but that I provide my honest opinion.All thoughts expressed are my own.

Intriguing was the right word choice, the story was fantastic!
The mystery, the danger, the love, the epilogue <3 all super wonderful. I’ll definitely be recommending this one to others! I’ll probably be rereading it in the near future too!
Content:
Style - Dual POV, Regency Fairytale Retelling (opposites attract)
Intimacy - Mild (hand holding, low descript kisses)
Language - Mild (4 times - damn)
Violence - Moderate (low descript/ non-gory, beatings, fights)
Potential Triggers - deaths (accidents, murder, suicides), attempted murder, drinking, greed and revenge, lying, manipulations

I probably liked this one best out of all the set due to John being a cotton worker. I get a bit tired of rich men in historical romances. I did like A Lady Most Alluring as well.
Hannah was likeable and I found the backstory there really interesting. I liked it lacked magic as so many of these retellings put in way too much magic which makes them feel cliche and a bit too coincidental in nature. John I loved. He was so caring for his mother, a hardworker, but still knew his place in society.
Mentions for Mille and James though James REALLY annoyed me at times!
Overall I liked the twists and intrigue of the mystery and loved the ending. This entire series is well worth reading

Hannah, an aristocratic in regency times, and John, a mill worker, meet in the most unsophisticated of ways and soon themselves working together to unravel the mystery surrounding an item they both rescued. Their story is sweet and surprising, their way to romance gentle and enduring. A novella retelling of Princess and the Frog without the addition of magic but still purely magical. This book is part of the Grimm Regency Tales novella series, a collection of reimagined Grimm fairytales by various authors.
Thank you to the author for the eARc.

Secrets, danger, intrigue and a very interesting plot make the story of Hannah and John a page turner. A couple of twists, a group of cagey side characters getting in the way and a great villain kept me rooting for Hannah and John's HEA. A surprising epilogue ties up wonderful story. This my first book by this author. I haven't read the story of the Frog Prince, but this author made me like the characters of this sweet romance. I enjoyed this book.

This series just gets better and better! I was definitely intrigued by this charming Regency Romance inspired by The Prince and the Frog. The mystery aspect was really good. Once I figured out one twist I was blindsided by several others! And those beginning scenes with the actual frog? Hilarious!

Oh my goodness this was so cute! It was nostalgic for me since I loved North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell growing up and this was such a sweet blend of that and the Frog Prince with its own unique twists and intrigue! The characters were lovable, the romance was so sweet and the intrigue was captivating! The conclusion was absolutely beautiful and I enjoyed every minute of it! I was only sad because it ended.

This is a unique and intriguing (pardon the pun) Princess and the Frog retelling. From the first chapter, you can tell this is going to be an exciting adventure, and it definitely delivers! The action is non-stop, and the tale, while at times heart-wrenching, ends up with a happily ever after. This is another excellent entry in the Grimm Regency Tales, and it is definitely worth a read.

This was my first book by Jenni Ward, I don't usually like fairytale retelling as they always disappoint me. This book was well written and did have a lot of fun and or intriguing parts that kept me engaged.
I do wish the final wrap up wasn't quite so easy but I really enjoyed the story in its entirety. I'll definitely be reading more by this author.

This regency romance is a retelling of the Princess and the Frog. This book is filled with mystery and romance. I enjoyed the romance between John and Hannah. The romance of this story is filled with chemistry. This book doesn’t have any spice with at most the book has kissing. This book was the perfect length with about 168 pages.

How much fun was that?! I absolutely loved the low angst low drama high intrigue! I thought John and Hannah were adorable and while everything clicked together a bit too perfectly, it felt right! What a quick and easy romp!

This was a very loosely based Frog Prince Retelling. I loved the mystery and detective work aspect of it! There were a lot of details that easily fell into place, making it a bit too saccharine for me. Overall a fine addition to this regency series!

This is a dual POV regency retelling of the Princess and the Frog (or The Frog Prince). But while the original fairy tale has no magic, this story’s curse stems from the greed of human nature. The two main characters are Hannah, a sweet young woman who is in the rare circumstance to be an heir even as a woman, and John, a local young man who works in her family’s mill.
While the book starts with a ball, it doesn’t read like a regency – there is a shocking lack of chaperoning and far too much adventuring. But taken as a fairytale reimaging, it works just fine. Hannah and John meet the ‘traditional’ way – when Hannah falls overboard after she drops her treasured ball into a pond. In the middle of the night. In her ball gown. They meet up again after John promises to help search for the missing ball and in doing so, helps her make a shocking discovery: a special family heirloom and a note, written to a family member that Hannah has no knowledge of. Who wouldn’t be intrigued after that discovery? So the pair set off on a series of adventures to solve this mystery, and in fact encounter more twists and turns than I was expecting.
The book was a cute retelling and I enjoyed the mystery. I discovered the author has written some YA fantasy books as well, and I look forward to checking them out in the future.
