Lady X’s Cowboy

Written by Zoe Archer
Review by Eileen Charbonneau

The widowed Lady Xavier is left a brewery and actually wants to run it—marking her as unconventional in 1883 London. Another duck out of water, Colorado cowboy Will Coffin, comes to her rescue when titled usurper Pryce will stop at nothing to wrest the enterprise from her control. Sparks fly. Lady X formulates a plan… she’ll assist Will on his London mission, to solve the mystery of his identity, in return for his help keeping Pryce from thwarting her business. Sparks fly higher as neither villains nor the clash of cultures and class can keep the lovers apart.

A fast-paced, delightful adventure with well-matched lovers who, when stressed, whisper sweet nothings in Yiddish. Oy, but who couldn’t love them? Historical romance at its best. A great debut for Zoe Archer.
