From the Publisher:
When Miss Charlotte Wilson asks God for a husband, she decides He must want her to pursue Mr. Hamilton Beckett, the catch of the season. The only problem? She’s never actually met Hamilton. Fortunately, one of her oldest and dearest friends, Mr. Henry St. James–who has returned to New York after a two-year absence–does know Hamilton. Much to Henry’s chagrin, Charlotte immediately ropes him into helping her meet Hamilton. However, none of her plans to catch Hamilton’s eye go as she expected, and she is even more confused when her old feelings for Henry begin to resurrect themselves. In the midst of the mayhem Charlotte always seems to cause, she wonders if the gentleman of her dreams might be an entirely different man than she thought.This novella is a companion to A Change of Fortune, Jen Turano’s full-length debut novel, available fall 2012!
Review:
This was a short little novella that I found on another book blog. (siereenathebooky@blogspot.com). Some of the books that she has planned to post about are ones that I enjoyed too, so I felt pretty confident that this would be a good read. (And it was free!)
I enjoyed this little short story. It was cute and fun to read. The characters were spunky. It was short…which shouldn’t surprise me because it was a novella. But the ending did wrap up really fast, even for that short amount of pages.
If you have a kindle (or the app) and like short little fluffly fun historical romance books this would be a good little read. This is a companion to one of Turano’s full length novels. I think I’ll give a full length book by her a try, they look interesting and could be good.
Final Score:
