Trade Review
The whimsical worldbuilding forms a perfect backdrop to the angsty couple, and Holton's winking narration, which puts her in cahoots with the reader, makes her exaggerated characters work. Overflowing with heart, humour, and hyperbole, this clever romance enchants * Publishers Weekly *
Holton provides plenty of chuckles...a fun-filled romp in a topsy-turvy world of corset-wearing, knife-wielding, magic-casting women and gun-wielding, light-fingered, charming pirates * Kirkus Reviews *
Clever word play, delightful double entendres, and adventurous high jinks will delight fans of smart, witchy romances * Booklist *
Sexy, funny, and utterly charming . . . Buckle up, readers, because this is a ride you won't want to miss * Lynn Painter, author of Mr. Wrong Number *
The League of Gentlewomen Witches has punch and verve, and makes for one heck of ride. It's romantic, sensual and a lot of fun, too * All About Romance *
A brilliant mix of adventure, romance, and Oscar Wildesque absurdity - one of the wittiest, most original rom coms I have read all year * Evie Dunmore, USA Today bestselling author of Bringing Down the Duke *
Filled with wit and an intriguing enemy-to-lovers romance. For fans of Jane Austen and Evie Dunmore * LibraryReads *
Holton takes readers on a wild ride through a fun, limitless world, where frivolity and whimsy reign supreme and skilled swordwork and grand displays of magic abound * Bookpage *
India Holton's joyous, swoony, genre-exploding novel is a marvel, bristling with wit (and weaponry!) and brimming with love. The League of Gentlewomen Witches will steal your heart, fly it to the moon, and return it to your chest, sparking with magic and just in time for tea * Joanna Lowell, author of The Runaway Duchess *
Another wickedly funny romp through this glorious world created by India Holton * Harper St. George, author of The Devil and the Heiress *
Fantastical, romantic fun! Sparkling with witty allusions to Shakespeare and Austen, whimsical adventure, and tenderhearted romance. A book lover's dream come true * Chloe Liese, author of the Bergman Brothers series *
A wild, rollicking, delicious carnival ride of a story . . . You've never read Victorian romance like this before and it'll ruin you for everything else * Lana Harper, New York Times bestselling author of Payback's a Witch *
