Hyacinth Bell comes to Ashthorne Hall to study the storied collection of rare Orchids, but she finds more than she bargained for when she meets its charming caretaker, and stumbles upon a spinetingling mystery.
An engaging historical novel that swept me away to the coast of Cornwall, as Hyacinth is drawn into the mysteries hidden within Ashthorne Hall. Hyacinth is an intelligent young woman, with a passion for botany. I loved how she and Lucas become friends while working on the estate together, and he is instantly likable despite the secrets hidden behind his eyes. They have great chemistry, and the plot was gripping and well paced.
Overall, a highly enjoyable read with excellent characters and a well executed plot that kept me guessing and rooting for the main characters to the end. A wonderfully atmospheric clean romance, great for fans of regency romance with a gothic touch.
I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
