Review of Becoming the Dark Prince by Kerri Maniscalco

Read for: Recently Added & Final Book Preparation


Synopsis: "In this irresistibly-priced short story, catch a glimpse of the inner struggles and triumphs that drive Stalking Jack the Ripper's endearing but troubled hero.


Enigmatic, brooding, and darkly handsome, Thomas Cresswell has always been the one mystery Audrey Rose has never been able to fully solve. As brilliant partners in crime investigation, they understand each other perfectly...but as young lovers, their passionate natures have led to both euphoria and heartbreak throughout the Stalking Jack the Ripper series.



This novella features a collection of scenes that takes place during and after the pair's horrifying Atlantic voyage in Escaping From Houdini. Experience new and familiar scenes from Thomas's unique point of view, including an intensely personal look into his plea for Audrey Rose's hand in marriage.



With a romance for the ages, Audrey Rose and Thomas reach the conclusion to their epic, irresistible partnership in their final adventure, Capturing the Devil."


My Review: Just like so many other readers, I was beyond excited to find out we were getting a novella from Thomas' point of view. I thoroughly enjoyed this little peek into his mind, turns out he isn't always as suave and charming and put together as he appears. We also get a little bit of what happens after the end of book 3 (Escaping Houdini), which had a very emotional ending. I inhaled this little novella and I am even more excited that I was before for the fourth and final book in this series. I do hope that we will get more either novellas or chapters in the new book from Cresswell's point of view.

My Rating: I absolutely adore Thomas, he is clever and charming and this little look into what he hides from the world was just perfect.  I loved getting this little taste to hold me over until Capturing the Devil.  I give it a rating of Four Paws!
