Resumen del Editor

A budding artist, a gentleman-in-training, and a fake courtship that takes both of them by surprise.

Caroline Clapham isn’t a world renowned artist—she’s simply a farmer’s daughter possessed of natural talent with a paintbrush. Talent that her mentor, the Countess of Inglewood, is happy to foster for a summer at her beautiful seaside estate. Caroline wants to see the world and commit its beauties to canvas, but she fears that the season will end and she will return home as insignificant as ever. The lure of an adventure and the enchanting Inglewood estate keep her dreams alive, but when she meets Edward Everly and agrees to fake a courtship with him, those dreams begin to change.

Mr. Edward Everly is preparing to take over the management of the estate from his father. His new responsibilities are many and varied, and include marrying the girl his parents have selected for him. Unfortunately, the chosen bride is in love with another, and Edward would rather help her cause than champion his own. When he stumbles upon Miss Clapham painting in the woods, he hasn't any idea the upheaval she will cause to all his plans. The beautiful young artist agrees to enter into a pretend courtship with him, but before summer’s end, Edward’s emotions are far from feigned.

Though it starts as a ruse, Caroline and Edward’s relationship quickly deepens into something neither of them expected. Edward has a role to fill, and Caroline’s lifelong dream is almost within reach. Will their pretend courtship have the chance to blossom into more, or will Edward follow the wishes of his family and risk breaking more than his own heart?

This is the first book in the Return to Inglewood series, and can be enjoyed as a stand-alone novel. Listeners of clean and wholesome Regency romances will enjoy this series.

Such a Twist on Romance

I enjoyed the narrator and her ability to create voices that supported the characters. It was such a delight to listen to a story where I couldn’t predict the exact ending. Understanding they would Fall in love was an absolute but I couldn’t figure out how Cousin Craig played into the picture. That was the twist. I also loved she had parents who adored her and promoted her dreams and her trust. I haven’t listened to the first series, but look forward
To Doing so.

Creative story telling

I loved this book! It was so refreshing to read a book that did not involve a huge love triangle or drama.

It is a beautiful love story that doesn’t rely on the tried and true recipe of other romance novels.
The characters experiences
growth and awareness that had me smiling with joy.

I would recommend this for teen readers and adult readers.

Sally delivers again

I may have enjoyed this one even better than saving Lord Neal. Such a delightful read.

Take courage with a truthful heart

I like being transported away to another time and the reunion with this cast of characters , like making a visit home.

Fantastic clean story

I enjoyed the ties to the earlier series and how the different characters had grown. I also enjoyed that much of the story was what I was expecting and then there were some twists that I wasn’t expecting as well. I really enjoy Sally Britton’s books and the narrator did a great job.

Love the characters in these ongoing series.

I love how the artist weaves the characters from her other series into her stories. She is such a talented author.
