This week I'm reviewing A Week to Be Wicked by Tessa Dare. Spoiler alert- I loved it. Here's the goodreads description: When a devilish lord and a bluestocking set off on the road to ruin... time is not on their side. Minerva Highwood, one of Spindle Cove's confirmed spinsters, needs to be in Scotland. Colin Sandhurst, Lord Payne, a rake of the first order, needs to be... anywhere but Spindle Cove.

With her long list of romantic disasters, she's not about to take a chance on another bad boy, even if

Always being plagued by insomnia, I have read to save myself from hours of boredom and infomercials, and admittedly, JTV - which by the way is a very entertaining way to spend several hours. I will allow JTV to sidetrack me just for a moment, since there is something about southerners talking about gemstones that puts my romantic heart to twitter. I'm from Baltimore, so we just don't have cute accents like those. Anyway, back to reading. So once I started law school, I realized that reading for pleasure was not something I would have time for.

As a result, I would arrive late to school, work, or home because I simply couldn't leave my car. I knew that once I got out, my perfect book world would be destroy
