Tabitha & Wolf Historical Mystery #9
Une Femme Patiente: La Série de Mystères Historiques de Tabitha et Wolf
C'est le printemps et l'amour est dans l'air ! Les cloches du mariage sonnent presque pour Lady Lily et le Vicomte Tobias, mais un sombre secret de famille va-t-il refaire surface pour gâcher leurs noces?
Tabitha et Wolf viennent de rentrer à Londres après un séjour de détente à Corfou. Ils n'ont pas pensé aux enquêtes sur les meurtres depuis près de deux mois. Cependant, tous les espoirs qu'ils avaient de voir ce répit durer un peu plus longtemps sont anéantis lorsque le père du marié, Clarence Williams, le comte de Huntingdon, est accusé de meurtre juste avant le jour du mariage de Tobias avec Lady Lily. Tabitha et Wolf pourront-ils laver le nom du comte à temps pour que le mariage se déroule comme prévu ? Et pourquoi la douairière fait-elle équipe avec l'oncle Duncan pour mener sa propre enquête?
Lady Lily et le vicomte Tobias vont-ils se marier et vivre heureux pour toujours? Seulement si Tabitha et Wolf, avec l'aide de la douairière et de l'oncle Duncan, parviennent à trouver le véritable assassin.

Excellent!
Unusual mystery, involving family and the wedding of Lily and Tobias! However, I am tired of the Dowager Counters trying to run evrrything! The first books that she forced herself into the investigation were funny! Now, she is just annoying, rude, and abrasive! I think the others are much too lenient! Mystery, however, was very unusual and the solution was superb! Great reading experience!

Wonderful Read as usual
I really enjoy this series. Tabitha and Wolf are wonderful characters. I like the growth we are seeing with them plus the other entertainment people. The only fly in the ointment is the dowager. No one stands up to her and it gets an annoying after awhile. To me it takes away from the story. I really like the twists and turns in this story non the less.

This has been a powerful series from the beginning book, and this latest adventure was no exception. The characters are powerful each in their own right, the plot is straightforward, and the premise is finding out if an aristocrat soon to be part of their extended family is truly guilty of killing another aristocrat who had bullied him all through his adolescence and early adulthood. The answers were complicated and the Dowager Pembrooke's life was put in danger, but all is balanced in the end. I definitely highly recommend this book and eagerly await the next one.

Book 9
The behavior of the Dowager Countess takes away from these otherwise good stories. She is cruel with her words. I am disappointed that the hero, Wolfe, doesn't stand up to her. The story would be just as good or better without the Dowager. If the author had even toned her down throughout the series it would have been better but no ....that did not happen. At least Jane finally stood up to her.

Patient Woman
I'm totally into this series! Tabitha's such a sweetheart, and Wolf is just the nicest guy. They're always opening up their home and helping folks out. Wonder if we'll get to see Bear find his own happy ending in a future book?

This book was very hard for me to keep reading. I found the storyline extremely confusing and filled with unnecessary drivel. Only curiosity as to the outcome of the book enticed me to keep reading.
