Never Wager with a Wallflower is a good ending for The Merriwell Sisters trilogy. It is a diverting and enjoyable historical romance, although it is my least favorite of the three. I did not like Venus very much in the previous novels, and she rubbed me the wrong way several times during this story. But she went through some character evolution so in the end, I found her more likable. It just made the time to get there drag a bit. Galahad was very likable. Overall, it was an interesting story with some good confused and delicious pining.

Thank you to St. Martin’s Press, the author, and NetGalley for my advance reader copy. All opinions are solely my own.
