Mystery and romance! A 5 star plus read!
Someone to Romance (The Westcott Series Book 7)
by Mary Balogh
Ahh Mary Balogh! You've done it to me again! With a turn of a few pages some of my 'just read' recently historical romances have completely faded into the background by comparison. This was so a five plus star read. I was completely enthralled with this fabulous story with its reluctant return of a lost heir, a reigning beauty contemplating marriage, and the confusion of a dark past.
Brimming with anticipation, romance, roses and humor this was a masterful entry into the numerous stories of the Westcott menagerie.
Lady Jessica Archer's story, the sister of the Duke of Netherby, is a page turner.
And just like that I fell in love with Avery Netherby all over again. The man is so finely tuned, so droll, so deadly and so much more. I adore him.
And the family! The way it gathers together and protects its own is priceless, even if sometimes more than a tad interfering.
Jessica had turned her back on marriage after the ton's treatment of her cousin Abigail, content to hold court, but never be involved with anyone gentleman. This year Jessica's decided to take the plunge. The rather dazzling Mr. Rochford, heir to the earldom of Lyndale is a likely contender.
Gabriel Thorne has returned to England from Boston looking to decide on whether he'll move to claim an inheritance he doesn't want. And then he meets Jessica.
