What is the difference between an upright moral woman who marries simply for financial gain and the prostitute who sells her body for money? Melissa Jagears' A heart Most Certain tells the story of one such woman, Lydia King. Lydia is almost engaged to Sebastian Little, the mayor's son. Once married she will want for nothing, except love. Nicholas Lowe is a miserly man who refuses to help fund the Moral Society. It is up to Lydia to prove her worth to the Littles by getting a donation from Mr. Lowe.
The story is strong, with interesting , well-developed characters. I am glad to see that it is the first in a series of books. I look forward to visiting the town of Teaville again.
I was given this book by netgalley.com for review purposes. All thoughts are my own.
