Book Overview
Harriet Hancock likes to make the lives of those around her better whether they like it or not. So, she is surprised when her friend Sophia Whitworth has ideas of her own on how to make Harriet happier--by throwing her together with Sophia's brother, stable hand Jonas Fitzroy. When Harriet discovers his natural way with words, she hatches a plan that would benefit them both.
Holding a grudge against Harriet for her meddling in Sophia's life, it is only because of his sister that Jonas agrees to approach Harriet about a possible artistic project. What he doesn't expect is for her to request his help writing a book.
As they work together, they start to see each other in a different light, but when the truth of Harriet's schemes is revealed, she'll find her good intentions for once have gone too far.

Enchanting historical romance
Published by MJSH , 2 years ago
“People didn’t have to abandon themselves in order to make a meaningful life, though. They just had to open who they were to the world.”
Harriet and Jonas. Their story is enchanting from the start. Their misunderstandings are intriguing, their conversations and banter are absolutely delightful, and their friendship that evolves into romance is delicious. Harriet, with her grand schemes that are over-the-top, and Jonas, with his self-deprecation and wonderings about his purpose, are such complete opposites yet balance each other out well. Jonas’ gift with words is lovely to behold and his letters are breath-taking. The lengths to which Harriet goes to deceive her father felt a bit unreal but was quite necessary, as this is how Harriet and Jonas become friends. I really enjoyed the cameo appearances of other characters from the author’s previous series.
I received the book from the publisher/author and was under no obligation to post a positive comment. All opinions are my own.
