Ravish Me with Rubies

Meh. I think Petra is a great name for a heroine, but not much else (aside from her relationship with her two besties) was particularly compelling. There are some odd plot gaps (like Petra & her love interest have lived two blocks apart in London for years, but don't start regularly running into each other until doing so moves the plot forward), and what could have been a really interesting element to the book, which is that Petra is a suffragette and said love interest is initially “staunchly” opposed to women using their lady brains to vote, but they don't ever even have a real conversation about it!

(Spoiler alert)

Instead his mind is changed by his embittered French former mistress??? I don't get that choice. The sex scenes themselves are fine, I suppose, but because of plot-related issues, there's almost no erotic tension. I don't think I would avoid the other 2 in this series, exactly, but I wouldn't seek them out, either.
