Under cover of night and with the best of intentions, Lady Isabel Carlyle breaks into the viscount’s residence to restore his stolen property and retrieve her own. The viscount is out of town for at least a sennight, and she never once considers facing a pistol aimed directly at her heart.

The Viscount Matthew Paul Rutherford has need of a bride before the month’s end. Previously, he had selected two different damsels from the marriage mart—Almack’s. However, both ladies met with a fatal accident before the wedding. Now, presented with an unexpected solution to his problem in the form of the lovely thief, he gives her a choice, marriage or gaol.

I write historical romance fiction novels set in the 1800s forward with a twist of suspense. All of my characters and stories that are portrayed in my books are fictitious. I am a native of Texas, but I have traveled through out America and beyond. As a dreamer, I love to visit new places where I can imagine a heroine meeting a hero in a special way. I’m an avid reader of (all sorts) and I love to write.

I married my high school sweat-heart and after having raised three sons plus one daughter, our love for each other remains unshaken. Now we enjoy our eight grandchildren. We can send them home, but we’re always happy for their return.

Outside of my family activities, I sing with the Silver Belles at my church and hate to miss even one practice. The local chapter of RWA is also at the top of my list of pleasures. It keeps me grounded with craft and connected with other writers.

Most of all, I enjoy going fishing with my husband. Give me a pole and leave me alone to bask in the sun, listening to water gurgle along the riverbanks while allowing my mind to float away to some distance place. Ah! Perfect.

Another good book by Ms Woodson. The suspense was spine tingling. The heroine, beautiful, brave Isabel faced danger with her shoulders squared and her chin up. Wet and clammy at the best of times is uncomfortable, but facing a man with a pistol pointed at her, yikes, what a situation. I wanted to help her escape and kept reading to discover what happened next. And that Lord Matthew, what a hunk even when he aimed his gun at her. After all, she broke into his house. What else could she expect? A good read well worth the time and effort.

4.0 out of 5 stars Suspenseful historical romance.
Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2021

Captured by the Viscount by Wareeze Woodson is an historical romance full of mystery, drama, danger, plots, hidden agendas, and jealousy- with a coerced into marriage element.
As with the other book of Ms. Woodson’s that I have read, this historical romance is written in the ‘old school style’- keeping true to the language, terminology, social norms, and style of the era. Having read her work before, I knew what to expect, so it didn’t take too long for me to settle into the flow of the story.
Lady Isabel Carlyle had high hopes of returning the Viscounts stolen property and at the same time collect her own stolen jewels. Little did she suspect that she would be caught red-handed with the bonds in her possession still, making her look like a thief in the night. After all, the Viscount wasn’t even meant to be in residence. He was supposed to be away at his country estate. But fate had other ideas, and so Isabel finds herself on the wrong end of a gun with an angry Viscount to contend with. How was she going to get out of this mess?
Viscount Matthew Rutherford caught the little thief in the act of stealing from him. He should turn her over to the authorities- but then he is in dire need of a bride to wed before the month has ended. There is a lot at stake. So, he gives Isabel a choice- marriage or jail. It’s not the best choice, but she really doesn’t want to end up in jail. Then there’s an added element of danger as someone seems to want Isabel dead. The fact that Matt has had two previous ‘fiancées’ die from strange ‘accidents’ right before the wedding, is now seen as sinister and the game of cat-and-mouse adds extra tension and suspense to the story. What happens next makes for an entertaining read.
While I did enjoy the story- there were some issues for me that caused some frustration. Again, there were a few contradictions in the story, where the character feels/says something so strongly one moment and then the next moment they are saying/doing the complete opposite. It just made some moments seem more contrived, added for convenience or added drama. I also noted that there was repeated information as we ‘see’ things happening with one character, and then experience it again with the other MC as the POV changes. There were other inconsistencies such as descriptions changing as we go from one POV to the other- such as one character checking a table setting and giving us a description, and then the POV changes and we get a slightly different description from the other MC. Then there was character name changes during the story. Although these issues didn’t detract too much from my enjoyment of the story, they did give me pause and had me flipping back over sections that I had already read to clarify things- I do feel that these issues should probably have been picked up during editing, or through a beta-read.
This hasn’t put me off reading more of Ms. Woodson’s work, and I am curious to see what I comes next.

Thank you, Wareeze Woodson!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Period Read
Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2021
5 stars!

I love the way this author writes, the stories all have romance but added in is the element of crime against the main characters and a mystery that needs to be uncovered. Isabel and Matt are a sweet couple, I love that Matt becomes so protective and in love with her as quickly as he does, especially with the way they first meet. Throughout the book Matt tries to uncover who is behind the plot to kill his new wife, along with Matt, we as the reader are trying to figure that out ourselves. There were so many times I thought I knew who it was but was fooled until the end. I really enjoy period romances and with little twists and turns along the way, it keeps the book more exciting and me engaged. I look forward to more from this author.

Lack of continuity in the beginning made it hard to follow the story. I saw the premise of a good book and interesting characters but it never developed. I jumped to the end after reading 8 chapters just to read the wrap up and that was even lackluster. Sorry.

4.0 out of 5 stars great story
Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2021
I enjoyed this historical romance story. This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites by her yet. This is a well written story about a thief who is trying to restore a right and then you have the viscount who needs to find a bride before the month is out. He has a solution to his problem when he gives this thief a choice. What will happen next you will need to read this book to find out. The characters are great and made the story fun to read. They brought life to the story as well as kept me turning pages to the end. They have great chemistry and just made the story for me. This is one of my favorite genes and I highly recommend this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful!
Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2021
I really do adore novels set in this era, especially when written as well as this one was. Wareeze Woodson did a wonderful job keeping true to the time, and I enjoyed every moment in this historical romance, with a huge dollop of mystery.

Oh, Isabel. Wanting to do the right thing, or possibly to smite her horrendous brother, she tries to stealthily return what was stolen from Viscount Rutherford. Her efforts landed her on the wrong side of a gun, and then with the choice of marriage or jail. I cannot blame her for her choice, truly. At that point I was giving the Viscount the stank eye myself though. But what followed was a story that earned every one of the five stars I'm giving it. I was enjoying the growth of Isabel and Matt, their romance and trying to figure out WHO!

5.0 out of 5 stars What's a Girl to Do?
Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2019
While this is my first experience with Ms. Woodson, I was well prepared to like this book as I love the genre, was intrigued by the blurb and a little Jimmy Thomas on a cover is always a good thing. And like it I did! The damsel in distress was in a right pickle - choosing marriage or jail? With the wrong man, marriage could BE jail. She was poised and elegant however and her response proved entertaining. The erstwhile hero, while he was indeed being robbed, was yummy and proved himself a good match for our heroine. With some bumps along the way, this was a most entertaining and enjoyable book and I'm so glad I chose to read it. If you love a rollercoaster Regency read with a heroine who has a backbone and the ability to stand up for herself plus a hero who is yummy with a dash of naughty thrown in and a HEA/HFN at the end, you too will love this book.
