'From shopkeeper…To officer’s wife
With a scandal in her past, shopkeeper Henrietta Gardiner has become wary of men, including her friend’s brother, dashing officer Sebastian Fortini. When Henrietta is called upon to take in her three young nephews, Sebastian is on hand to help her, even offering a convenient marriage as a solution! Henrietta starts to realise her new husband’s carefree exterior hides a more intriguing interior…but where will that leave their hasty marriage?'
This is the second book within the Regency Belles of Bath series by Jenni, though they can be read as standalone novels. This is the story of Henrietta and Sebastian and is told over 26 Chapters (+Epilogue). Readers beware though this book is so easy to get sucked into as you will not want to put it down.
This book is full of some misunderstandings between the characters which ends up for an interesting story. To begin with it does seem like the attraction is one sided, I won't tell you who but as the story progress's the reader discovers the truth. What's brilliant about this book is that it will suck the reader in and grab their attention from the very beginning. It is interesting and intriguing leaving readers wanting to know what happens.
Readers will find themselves invested in this story but not only that they will find themselves invested in the other characters, wanting to know their stories. The readers will be left with the urge to read the first one in the series, especially if they like me haven't read it yet. The first couple is mentioned in this book a few times which just helps that urge to grow.
Overall I completely loved this story and will be purchasing the first book as soon as possible. From my reckoning I believe there is at least one more story in this series, though I am hoping for more, especially a certain set of characters that you will meet in this book. You can get your copy HERE and start this series yourself.
Until Next Time
