Lakeshire Park Blog Tour ~ My Review

Hello, my friends! It's my pleasure to be part of the Lakeshire Park Blog Tour!

My Review

Lakeshire Park is a sweet Regency romance. This fun, low angst story is perfect for the current trying times!

Set in 1820, Amelia Moor and her sister Clare will soon be on their own. When their step-father, Lord Gray, dies, he obligation to them ends. With no family, money or inheritance, they will be destitute. Lord Gray gave them one season to find husbands, but the girls returned home with no attachments.

When an invitation comes to attend a house party, it’s Amelia's hope to secure a match between Clara and Sir Ronald. Because time is running out. Lord Gray is deathly ill.

It’s not going to be as easy as Amelia hopes! They find Georgiana Woods and her brother Peter are at the party also, and Georgiana wants Sir Ronald for herself. Peter is there to help Georgiana get want ever she wants. Amelia finds Peter one of the most infuriating man she’s ever met. Still, she strikes a bargain with him to stop interfering. He agrees to leave Georgiana and Clara to their own devices if Amelia agrees to spend every afternoon with him.

I loved Peter and found him very amusing. He likes to irritate and tease Amelia. And because of a disagreeable first impression, Amelia looks for every reason not to like him.

Amelia is a practical person. She doesn’t believe in love. Not romantic love, but making sure Clara is happy is essential to her. And she’s willing to do anything to make sure Clara’s future is secure. But could spending so much time with Peter change her belief in love?

I delighted in reading Lakeshire Park! It was fun, sweet, and a lovely getaway!

BOOK DESCRIPTION:

Brighton, England 1820

Amelia Moore wants only one thing--to secure the future happiness of her younger sister, Clara. With their stepfather's looming death, the two sisters will soon be on their own--without family, a home, or a penny to their names. When an invitation arrives to join a house party at Lakeshire Park, Amelia grasps at the chance. If she can encourage a match between Clara and their host, Sir Ronald, then at least her sister will be taken care of.

Little does she know that another guest, the arrogant and overconfident Mr. Peter Wood, is after the same goal for his own sister. Amelia and Peter begin a rivalry that Amelia has no choice but to win. But competing against Peter--and eventually playing by his rules--makes Amelia vulnerable to losing the only thing she has left to claim: her heart.
