I found out Victoria Lynn had a new story coming out and it sounded interesting. It was. Though not a long story, it was sweet. And now it’s time to share about it with you. Oh, and there’s a giveaway! I thought that would catch your interest. 🙂
Revolutionary War Era England
Marjorie Kirk is a woman with no fortune, no prospects, no family, and no skills. Or so she thinks. She is awkward, shy, and the farthest thing from any semblance of a society lady.
The new minister keeps turning up in the most awkward of places and she can’t help but feel that her life is doomed to one of embarrassment. But will her flaws actually be the thing that others find the most attractive?
A story of a young woman with social anxiety and how she learned to bloom.
My Review:
4 stars
I don’t typically read stories where the focus is romance but since I had read other books by this author, I was sure there wouldn’t be anything objectionable. I was right. This was a very sweet story taking place in England. The characters felt real, and while I can’t say if the story was historically correct or not since that’s not a time period I know much about, nothing really jumped out and shouted “too modern.” I really appreciated the message of being yourself all the time and not trying to act a part just to impress. This was a well written story that I’m glad I read.
Find it on Goodreads, Amazon in Paperback, or Amazon in Kindle.
