In the past,
I have been able to read the novella to this series, Gentleman of Her Dreams,
and also the first book in the series, A Change of Fortune. I’ve had the second book, A Most Peculiar Circumstance,
on my watch list for quite a while, but haven’t seen a drop in it yet.
Felicia has
just had a letdown. Her secret
infatuation with the local reverend, which appears to be no secret at all, has
ended with him married to another woman.
For four years, Felicia had altered who she was to try and attract this
man’s attentions. Now that he is gone,
Felicia’s mother has seen fit to try and match her up with someone as soon as
possible.
Grayson has
had a troubled past and has vowed to never marry again. His past mistakes have made him, in his eyes,
unworthy of forgiveness from God and thereby unsuitable as a husband to any
young woman. Problem is, Felicia is both
maddening and intriguing at the same time.
While he wants to spare her from his past, saving her from one of the
troubles she tends to get into brings his past right to her door.
As with the
other books I have read by Jen Turano, this was another great read. I didn’t feel like I had missed much by
having to skip the second book, although mention was made of botched marriage
proposals. Apparently all the men in
these books make a mess of their proposals.
Other than that, as long as you realize it’s a happily-ever-after,
you’re not going to spoil much by reading them out of order. I do hope that this series doesn’t follow the
usual trilogy format, as we still don’t have resolution for Agatha and I think
it would be a great story from a relatively new author. She’s a great writer and her characters make
me smile. Definitely hope to see more
from her! Good Book!
*I received
a copy of this book from the publisher through Netgalley in exchange for an
honest review.
