An evening at the opera could prove Lord Tremayne’s undoing when he and his lovely new paramour cross paths with his sister and brother-in-law. Introducing one’s socially unacceptable strumpet to his stunned family is never done. But Daniel does it anyway. And it might just be the best decision he’s ever made, for Thea’s quickly become much more than a mistress—and it’s time he told her so.
Thea’s fallen under the enticing spell of her new protector. How could she not when his very presence, every kindness and written word has utterly seduced her senses? Yet her mind insists on knowing more, such as why must Lord Tremayne pummel his face in boxing matches and be so abrupt in person? Curiosity turns to baffled amazement when his sister seeks out Thea, begging advice. If that weren’t surprising enough, when circumstances conspire and Thea arrives—unannounced—at his home, she’s not only welcomed inside but confronted with more truths than she ever expected.

Wonderful Final Installment
I thoroughly enjoyed the first two books of this Mistress in the Making series. It isn't a series in the truest sense. Rather, each book is an installment of a serialized novel. This book completes the series. Throughout all the stories, both the hero and heroine have their own growth arcs. At the series’ start, each was vulnerable in his/her own way. Regency romances in particular, as happens in most historical romances, usually feature near-perfect people, at least physically. So I loved that this hero not only had a debilitating stammer, but it figured significantly into the plot. I love it when characters drive plot in fiction. But he is an utterly endearing and swoon-worthy hero, as we saw in book two with his delightfully romantic letters and gestures. The heroine has her own insecurities and vulnerabilities. In this book, we see these growth arcs neatly and naturally tied up in a satisfying way. The hero's family was great in this book as well. I highly recommend this serialized novel for its delightful humor and well-rounded, believable, and relatable characters.
I received a free copy of this book, but that did not affect my review.

Terrific Historical
I really liked this historical it features a Lord who has a serious problem with stuttering and I can really relate to him as I have a stuttering problem as well although I have mostly taught myself how to overcome it I still stutter sometimes and I really liked the h in this story as she doesn’t make a big deal over the H’s speech. There is a nice story with a bit of steamy scenes and there is a very nice HEA at the end. All in all a very enjoyable historical novel. -
3.5 stars - Cute ending! I like this couple soooooo much. Again, tho, the rating is 3.5 because I had to spend $8 for three different transactions!! Ridiculous…

A feel good story with a cute pair. I really enjoyed these books. They all go together, so plan to read them all

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This is the conclusion to Daniel and Thea’s story. Their story has been so passionate and heartfelt up to this point. This book does not disappoint in that area! It is the most swoon worthy in the series! Daniel and Thea have grown emotionally since the beginning of the first book.
I love how Daniel overcomes so much personally and becomes the man he is meant to be. Thea gains self assurance and validation. Their story of finding love from a situation that deplores and forbids it was fascinating. Their journey to love is heart wrenching and heart warming.
This was a beautiful story with a wonderful happily ever after. This is a new author to me and I will read more of her works to come! I recommend all three of the Mistress In The Making books to anyone who enjoys electric passion, witty humor, and a beautiful love story!

The third book and conclusion of Mistress in The Making. This story is full of wonderful surprises. Thea meets Ellie, Daniel's sister and her husband. Ellie comes to Thea for mistress training. She wants to be sure her husband never roams from her bed. They learn some valuable information from one of Thea's friends. Thea immediately puts the information into action and Daniel thinks he is in heaven. Daniel has had several epiphanies and it has drastically changed his outlook on life. Ellie helps Thea do something for Daniel that will mean the world to him and it does have that effect. Thea returns to her squaller of a room to retrieve her mother's hair brush when the landlord begins to speak in vulgar ways and physically tries to assault her. Daniel's employee beats the landlord and Thea finishes him with a knock in the head with a heavy heeled boot. Daniel meets her at her new home and finds her trembling and not divulging what happened. But his employee did reveal what happened and Thea filled in the rest. Daniel took his friends and workers and five of them went after the landlord. Daniel returned to Thea satisfied the landlord would no longer do anyone harm. Then he sat Thea down for the talk of his life and explained what she meant to him. (sigh/swoon) What a wonderful romantic romance. I highly recommend it.

Lord Tremayne is a man of the peerage who has dealt with his demons in the only way he knows how. Through tactics such as tardiness, and tinkering with a mechanical orrery to avoiding situations where he must converse, Daniel is adept at masking his stutter. Equally, he immerses himself in his penitence via pugilistic endeavors.
Thea is similar to Daniel in that she is a survivor. She has done what was necessary to survive, even if it means that she would not be looked upon as a respectable woman. I found Thea to be a strong and positive person even though she had experienced neglect and was on the brink of starvation.
Daniel and Thea are two people who you want to succeed. The heat and eroticism between them is palpable on the page. The sweetness between the two of them is just as equally satisfying and heart warming. I was left feeling happy that these two people, who were so in need of love and acceptance, found and rescued one another.
I voluntarily read and reviewed a copy of this story as a part of the "Mistress in the Making" bundle thanks to Larissa Lyons via BookSirens. All opinions are my own. -
This was definitely a sweet ending to these little novellas. It was finally made up for everything that the other two books lacked - some actual engaging interplay between the two characters beyond the bedroom or letters. Really enjoyed

Read the conclusion of this special couple
I loved everything about these two characters. Thea is beautiful , kind & ever so sweet to the people around her. Their story has sensuality, grace & sacrifice. Lord Tarmere sense of caring, kindness. His vulnerabilities are what make this novel real. The people that support & love him.
