Book Review «The Belle of London» by Nicola Italia, written by Eva (@ikariancorner)
Today is the release day of «The Belle of London» by Nicola Italia and I want to thank the author for the ARC (Advanced Reader Copy) she gave us.
This is the author’s twentieth book, but the first one I’ve read. And it
won’t be my last.
«He had been drawn to her even when she had been engaged to his friend. Even when

he knew she loathed him. He was drawn to her. It was a slow burn that utterly
consumed him.»
Set in the late Victorian Era, we follow Amelia as she grows from a promising dancer
to the greatest actress in London. She meets many people in her journey, men and
women of all ages and social classes, some of whom want to help her and others want
to destroy her. Colorful characters, who contribute to the story and don’t just exist as
a name on a paper. I didn’t like two specific characters from the second I read their
names and I was right about them! I will not name them, because you have to feel
how I felt.
Among those characters, Amelia meets Kit. Arrogant, cocky, and handsome Kit. The
tension between these two had a heartbeat! From the beginning, their relationship had
been like a rollercoaster, with long ups and sudden downs. The quote represents their
relationship to the fullest. A slow burn romance, a plot full of twists and turns, leaving
the reader to always second guess whether or not Amelia and Kit will have their
happily ever after.
The character development was slow, but made a big difference in the story. Here, I
would like to add that jealous Kit is my favorite Kit. The pace was great and I
consumed the book in a week.
I love Historical Romance and I’m so happy that this book is one of my 2024 reads.
