The Cutthroat Countess

Praise for Minerva Spencer’s The Boxing Baroness, Book 1 in The Wicked Women of Whitechapel
 
“With the launch of her swooningly romantic, sizzling sensual new Regency-set Wild Women of Whitechapel series, Spencer delivers her own one-two knockout punch with a superbly realized cast of characters that includes an intriguingly different yet historically credible heroine and an exhilarating plot that not only delves into the fascinating world of female pugilism—Marianne is based on a historical figure, Mary Anne Pearce—but also deftly illuminates the dangerous state of affairs in France after Napoleon escaped from Elba.” —Booklist, STARRED REVIEW
 
“Spencer launches her Wicked Women of Whitechapel Regency series with an outstanding romance based in part on a real historical figure…Spencer ramps up the mystery and the romance in equal measure as the threat of Dominic and the knowledge that society would be unaccepting of their relationship hover over the captivating couple. This is sure to wow.” —Publishers Weekly, STARRED REVIEW
 
“Fans of historical romances with strong female characters in non-traditional roles and the men who aren’t afraid to love them won’t be disappointed by this series starter.” —Library Journal, STARRED REVIEW
 
“Sparkling . . . impossible not to love.” —Popsugar

“I’ve never read a historical romance featuring a professional woman boxer, but this one is set to change that!” —BookRiot on The Boxing Baroness
