I love Regency fiction and nothing makes me happier than a new book by Kristi Ann Hunter. Every book she writes engages me from the first page to the last and I adore the way she has friends from earlier books appear in the latest book like treasured visits from old friends.
Through the machinations of others, Harriet and Jonas are thrown together. They seem to be complete opposites and I loved how Kristi brought them together. Both were vulnerable people who needed to learn how to let God reign in their life. I loved the plot and the witty, humorous dialogue. The setting of Newport with all of the horse-loving people was fun.
So grab a pot of tea and settle into your favorite reading nook. I hope you love this book as much as I do.
I was given a copy of this book with no expectations. All thoughts are my own.
Miss Harriet Hancock enjoys playing the role of eccentric heiress, using her wealth and influence to cleverly and anonymously better the lives of those in Newmarket. Though she keeps people at a distance to protect a years-old secret, when her friend pleads for help on a personal project, Harriet can't resist.
Stablehand Jonas Fitzroy would do anything for his twin sister, even if it means seeking out the woman whose meddling ways have made him wary and suspicious. The last thing he expects is for Miss Hancock to request his help in writing a book. Intent on revealing her underlying plan, Jonas agrees.
As they work together, an unexpected friendship forms. But when things for once don't go according to Harriet's plan, she's left wondering if good intentions might not be enough. Is there a way to mend the broken pieces of her life? And will Jonas give her another chance at his heart?
