The Halifax Hellions is a lively and engaging historical romance featuring twin sisters, Margo and Matilda Halifax. Set in the Regency era, the story unfolds in two interconnected novellas. Margo, known for her wild reputation, finds herself on a road trip to stop her sister's elopement, accompanied by her brother's best friend, Henry, who secretly loves her. Their journey is full of misadventures and hidden feelings. Meanwhile, Matilda, tired of her notorious persona, seeks a fresh start with Christian, a brooding protector with specific tastes (exploring a little kink). Their dynamic explores themes of power and vulnerability, leading to a sexy and spicy romance. The book masterfully intertwines humor, love, and chaos, making it a delightful read.
I loved this book! I feel like I read it pretty quickly, but it's hard to compare a kindle version to a paper one in terms of length. I had not read the previously released novella's...but I have read other books by this author (in the same series?)The dual narrative offers a rich exploration of contrasting characters and their growth, with Margo embracing her spirited nature and Matilda seeking a new path. Alexandra Vasti's fun characters and witty dialogue bring the Regency period to life, while the themes of love, scandal, and self-discovery resonate deeply. The book's playful yet profound exploration of relationships, both romantic and familial, adds depth and charm. I love the contrast of the two love stories. I love the main characters. There were some funny laugh out loud moments and there were some tense moments. This book is sure to be a hit when it comes out on February 17, 2026. Thanks to St. Martin's Press and NetGalley for an ARC.
