A Victorian Era Historical Romance ___ Praise for the Scandalous Family-The Victorians series Tracy is a wonderful writer that loves a complicated story. While her stories are true to the Victorian era, she brings so much more to her books. The characters are full of emotion and suck you right into the story. I love how Tracy pulls the reader into the story and we feel we have a front row seat to the action, and feel all the ups and downs of the characters. One thing is for sure, this is not your usual Victorian romance. This story has a great, and at least for me, and unexpected plot. This is a really satisfying read! There's plenty of substance to the plot and an interesting storyline with intrigue, action and suspense as well as the delicious romantic relationship developed between the two main characters. Tracy Cooper-Posey has a succinct and yet enthralling writing style that creates such an immersive experience that I feel like I'm stepping into situations right alongside these characters that I am getting to know!
