SYNOPSIS
A blackmail threat. A fake engagement. A runaway bride. Join the Cousins of Cavendish Square in three clean and sweet Regency romances.
*****
She flees an arranged marriage in quest of her past, but she just might discover her future instead.
Born in faraway Canton yet raised in England, Amelia Fitzwater has always fallen just short of being a true lady, even if she were the niece of an earl. But when her stepmother despises her enough to arrange her in marriage to an upstart tradesman’s son, Amelia gathers her things and steals away on a quest for her late mother’s Chinese roots.
Jacob Hawthorne is just about to spread his wings when his mercenary father insists on pinning him down in marriage. With his bachelor days dwindling, Jacob uncharacteristically agrees to escort the bewitching, mysterious stranger he finds at the London Docks on one last, grand adventure and chance at a purposeful life.
When dangers and disappointments bind them together in friendship and more, Jacob and Amelia gradually discover that what they’re running away from and what they’re careening towards might just be the very same thing.
A sweet Regency historical romance with a plucky heroine, a dashing hero, and a highwayman or two. Part of the Cousins of Cavendish Square series, which can be read as standalone novels and in any order.
REVIEW
In the last few years, I have come across several series of books where each book is written by a different author; the Cousins of Cavendish Square is one such series. The fun thing about a collaborative series is that the books are based on a common theme and can usually be read in any order. However, since there are multiple authors involved, each book has a unique feel.
The Disenchanted Heiress is…
A little bit of Cinderella…
A little bit of Snow White…
AND
A little bit of You’ve Got Mail.
I received this book free from the author, publisher, or other source. My only obligation is to provide a fair and honest review.
