Synopsis:
Brighton, England 1820 Amelia Moore wants only one thing–to secure the future happiness of her younger sister, Clara. With their stepfather’s looming death, the two sisters will soon be on their own–without family, a home, or a penny to their names. When an invitation arrives to join a house party at Lakeshire Park, Amelia grasps at the chance. If she can encourage a match between Clara and their host, Sir Ronald, then at least her sister will be taken care of.
Little does she know that another guest, the arrogant and overconfident Mr. Peter Wood, is after the same goal for his own sister. Amelia and Peter begin a rivalry that Amelia has no choice but to win. But competing against Peter–and eventually playing by his rules–makes Amelia vulnerable to losing the only thing she has left to claim: her heart.
My Review:
This book was a breath of fresh air. What a wonderful romance. From the beginning I was rooting for Amelia and Peter. Beautiful love story with a happy ending.
This one also has a secondary romance between Clara and Sir Ronald. And it also has two sibling bonds that is heartwarming and relatable.
I highly recommend this read. And don’t be like me, read it soon after you get it.
I was given an ARC by the publisher via netgalley, way too long ago.
