SPIRITUAL RATING: 2
CRM REVIEW: Be warned this book starts out slow. It is mostly giving you the back story for the following books in the series. Fanny and Michael have the best friend/forbidden love story. With Fanny’s sudden wealth all her relatives treat her worse than usual. On top of being kept apart from Michael, her uncle Jonas is trying to find an appropriate suitor for her. Sophie and Amanda come up with distractions to keep the suitors away. This agitates Uncle Jonas putting more friction between him and Fanny. The journey may start slow, but it doesn’t stay that way long. With Uncle Jonas’ greed, the question of Fanny’s heritage, and love torn apart this book ends in anticipation that will keep you longing for the next part of the story [An Unexpected Love].

Other things of special note: This book is a set up for book two [An Unexpected Love]. Sophie Broadmoor is self-centered and flirtatious. Because her father is not giving her the attention she needs she is seeking it elsewhere. A light comment is made that Sophie has had her share of drinks.
Fanny tells a lie in order not to suffer a suitors company but is found out.
