I have been given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Lady Margaret Fairchild (Meggy) and her two siblings are forced to leave their home and be under the guardianship of Lord Nicholas Holbrook. Despite Meggy and Nicholas butting heads a lot they need to work together in order for Meggie to find a suitable husband. As the family fortunes have dwindled Meggie must do what she needs to do and quickly. What follows is a lot of humour, sadness and understanding.
I have really enjoyed reading this book and I am looking forward to the next book by Felicity George coming out soon. I liked the characters especially Meggie. She has a strong will that could disarm anyone and intelligence which makes her vital when everything seems to be going wrong. The book has some really lovely vivid descriptions of the countryside and the surrounding areas.
The story flows very well and it is nice to get the thoughts and feelings of both Meggie and Nicholas instead of trying to guess what one is thinking and feeling. It is an easy calming read and one that makes you want to go back again and again.
