Goodreads Summary:
Two rival spies must brave pirates, witches, and fake matrimony to save the Queen.
Known as Agent A, Alice is the top operative within the Agency of Undercover Note Takers, a secret government intelligence group that is fortunately better at espionage than at naming itself. From managing deceptive witches to bored aristocratic ladies, nothing is beyond Alice’s capabilities. She has a steely composure and a plan always up her sleeve (alongside a dagger and an embroidered handkerchief). So when rumors of an assassination plot begin to circulate, she’s immediately assigned to the case.
But she’s not working alone. Daniel Bixby, otherwise known as Agent B and Alice’s greatest rival, is given the most challenging undercover assignment of his life— pretending to be Alice’s husband. Together they will assume the identity of a married couple, infiltrate a pirate house party, and foil their unpatriotic plans.
Determined to remain consummate professionals, Alice and Daniel must ignore the growing attraction between them, especially since acting on it might prove more dangerous than their target.
Review
The Secret Service of Tea and Treason was uproariously funny. While I’m all for a good laugh, the story was so dramatic I found it difficult to take anything seriously. Everything was a tad too hysterical for me.
What I Liked:
- a warm story with family coming first
- strong independent characters
- Alice and Daniel made a perfect pair
- absurd dialogues and actions
- so many innuendos hahahaha
- found family
- grand gestures
- fun overall
- a sweet end to the series
The Not So Much:
- the story lacked substance
- I wish the plot was just a tiny bit more serious
