The snappy and witty dialogue between them adds another layer of enjoyment to their interactions. They are two individuals who have lived through emotional isolation and loneliness, and watching them slowly open up and connect with each other is deeply satisfying. I especially loved the relationship between Prudence and Jack. From Prudence’s psychic dream consultations to the mysterious chimes that only Jack can hear, there’s always something otherworldly happening just beneath the surface. The Bride Wore White is no exception, featuring a variety of psychic abilities and supernatural phenomena that add an extra layer of intrigue and excitement to the narrative. One of the standout features of Quick’s books is the way she incorporates paranormal elements into her storytelling. As the seventh book in the series, it continues the story of the eponymous seaside town and its colorful cast of characters, while also introducing new players and deepening existing relationships. OPINION: The Bride Wore White is a delightful addition to Amanda Quick’s Burning Cove series, blending elements of historical romance, mystery, and paranormal fiction to create a truly engaging and entertaining read. As the danger to Prudence increases, she finds herself struggling with her growing fascination with Jack. However, his idea of helping involves using her as bait for the killer. Jack, who is scarred and grim-faced, initially believes Prudence to be a fraud or a murderer, but eventually agrees to help her. Luther assigns her case to his associate, Jack Wingate. Prudence comes to Luther Pell in Burning Cove to ask for his assistance in proving her innocence. However, she is kidnapped and wakes up in a bloodstained wedding dress next to a corpse, leading to her being framed for the murder.

She changes her career becoming a librarian and moves to a new home, hoping to start fresh. When she uses her abilities to save herself, she decides to flee and make another life for herself.

THE STORY: Prudence Ryland is a dream reader and psychic consultant who finds herself in danger when her latest client intends to kill her.

I especially was excited about the more prominent nods to the Arcane Society, and I hope there is more in this vein to come in the future of this series.

the romance between Prudence and Jack was a highlight as I loved their prickly interactions. It is an enjoyable and satisfying read, with witty dialogue, engaging characters, and a well-developed paranormal element. Genres: Historical, Paranormal, Romantic SuspenseįINAL DECISION: I loved this book. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. I received this book for free from Netgalley in order to prepare an honest review.
