It’s not just the siblings though the plot also picks up once the couple changes location and exterior circumstances/influences have a play in the budding relationships. I think part of that experience is due to the early part of the book being the couple meeting/getting to know one another and then the Bedwyns all get involved and suddenly 👀👀👀 I cannot put the book down. This could have just been me, but it felt like Balogh took her time setting up the story, nearly too long, but in the end I was always speeding through the rest because I could not put the book down.

The first 150 pages of most of the books were the slowest for me to get through other than Slightly Tempted and Slightly Dangerous.

Some things I noticed while reading the series: Not only have I placed the books according to my enjoyment, but I have mini-reviews as well as Wulfric’s development per each book because…science. I also want to talk about this series with everyone and anyone. Also maybe some of you have not read the Bedwyn saga. Others should benefit, even if they don’t want to, from my achievement and experience.

Why I actually added Slightly Married to my TBR that day is anyone’s guess, or why I actually sought out the series in my used bookstores, but are we disappointed? No.

This journey really started months ago when a booktuber mentioned that to get to the staunch, cold, Darcy-like duke, I should really read the books before Slightly Dangerous to really appreciate Wulfric as a character. …Aiden - the brooding man of honor, Rannulf - the irresistible rebel, Freyja - the fiery beauty, Morgan - the ravishing innocent, Alleyne - the passionate nobleman, and Wulfric - the mysterious head of the family… Meet the Bedwyn: six brothers and sisters-men and women of passion and privilege, daring and sensuality…Enter their dazzling world of high society and breathtaking seduction, where each will seek love, fight temptation, and court scandal…
