Praise for Notorious
“Unique characters and emotional depth...a winner. Spencer gives
you all the feels!”
—Sabrina Jeffries
“Thanks to Minerva Spencer's sparkling dialogue and ability to ramp
up the sexual tension, the unconventional couple at the heart
of Notorious is impossible not to love.”
—Popsugar
“Both characters are strong, complex, and believable, and the
cliffhanger offers a nice setup for the sequel. Readers who like
thrills mixed in with their romance should check this out.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Packed full of fiery exchanges and passionate embraces, this is
for those who prefer their Regencies on the scandalous side.”
—Library Journal
“Romance readers will feel like they have hit the literary trifecta
with Notorious, the first brilliantly crafted book in much-awarded
Spencer’s brand-new Regency-set Rebels of the Ton series. Spencer
serves up an irresistible cocktail of smart characterization,
sophisticated sensuality, and sharp wit—all while orchestrating her
own clever spin on the popular bluestocking-and-rake trope.”
—Booklist, Starred Review
Praise for Minerva Spencer and her novels:
“This diverting first in Spencer’s Outcasts Regency series features
a matched set of high-ranking misfits whose love affair doesn’t
even begin to play out until after their wedding…The fast-paced
plot is elevated by Mia and Adam’s wicked repartee, savvy wit, and
energetic libidos.”
—Publishers Weekly on Dangerous
“Dangerous is the first in Minerva Spencer’s new Outcasts series of
Regency romances, and it has such deliciously juicy backstories for
its charming protagonists that it’s impossible to imagine anything
topping it….Spencer certainly succeeds in sweeping the reader up in
the same dizzying whirl! Sexy and wildly entertaining, Dangerous is
a promising romance debut.”
—Bookpage on Dangerous
“Minerva Spencer's writing is sophisticated and wickedly witty.
Dangerous is a delight from start to finish with swashbuckling
action, scorching love scenes, and a coolly arrogant hero to die
for. Spencer is my new auto-buy!"
—New York Times bestselling author Elizabeth Hoyt
“Two characters with secrets who unexpectedly find what they need
in each other’s arms—Readers will love this lusty and unusual
marriage of convenience story.”
—New York Times bestselling author Madeline Hunter
“Smart, witty, graceful, sensual, elegant and gritty all at once.
It has all of the meticulous attention to detail I love in
Georgette Heyer, BUT WITH SEX!. . . It has everything a historical
romance should. Sexy, thrilling, involved, foreign ports, pirate
ships, crumbling castles - and a visit to Brighton. The hero and
heroine are unique and engaging, and the secondary characters
equally vivid. Can't wait to get my hands on the sequel."
—RITA-award winning author Jeffe Kennedy
“Fans of Amanda Quick’s early historicals will find much to savor
in Spencer’s exuberantly crafted, exhilaratingly plotted, and
erotically charged sophomore literary effort that quickly proves to
be every bit as much fun as her stellar debut, Dangerous
(2018).”
—Booklist on Barbarous STARRED REVIEW
“Spencer’s gleeful second Outcasts historical is just as much fun
as the first…Scintillating….Readers will particularly appreciate
Spencer’s considerable talent with bedroom scenes as this romance
rockets to its satisfying conclusion.”
—Publishers Weekly on Barbarous
