Kit Turner and Jackson Forge are at it again in The Bride of Blackfriars Lane by Michelle Griep. With a setting in London in 1885, this sequel of The Thief of Blackfriars Lane has the loving couple at odds with each other when Kit fails to show up for their wedding. Griep’s skill at writing witty banter and imaginative scenes shines throughout the book. Colorful characters and crazy adventures abound to keep the reader amused and captivated.
“Kit Turner could talk a bandy-legged pirate into donning a white robe and joining a cathedral choir, such was her silver tongue—just one of the many reasons he admired the fiery woman.”
“But anyone can change, Jackson. By God’s grace, who we are today is not who we will become.”
With plenty of action, adventure, suspense, romance, and a dash of inspiration, this tale kept me turning the pages and rooting for Kit and Jackson.

The Continuing Adventure of Jackson and Kit!
Detective Jackson Forge can hardly wait to marry the street-sly
swindler who’s turned his life upside down. Kit Turner is equally
excited to wed the handsome detective, and what better way to show her
love than providing him with a gift any man of the law would love? She
determines to bring to justice the men who years ago maimed his
brother—despite Jackson’s warning to leave the past in the past. As she
digs into the mystery of what happened, she unwittingly tumbles into her
own history and endangers her future happiness with Jackson.
