Rescuing Lord Inglewood by Sally Britton
4.0
This was a unique story.
At first, I was a bit turned off by how Esther seemed so intent on believing that Silas wanted nothing to do with her when he was so kind and attentive to her. Her perceptions of his intentions were wrong every single time and she had moments of irritating immaturity. However, I think the author did a good job of explaining Esther’s past and the trauma she endured. Esther and Silas’ story was a good reminder that trauma can cause you to view people and their actions / intentions in a very skewed way. I appreciated how patient Silas was with her and how he tried his best to prove his allegiance to her even when he failed at it.
This was a sweet romance that I really enjoyed although some of the darker topics seemed to take over quite a bit of the plot and I wish there had been a bit less focus on “other things” outside of the relationship. I thoroughly enjoyed the characters and their journey and the story was unique. Plus, marriage of convenience is a favorite trope of mine, and it was done really well here as we got to watch these characters figure out what they meant to each other and how they would navigate their new circumstances.
