An Uncommon Courtship by Kristi Ann Hunter
5.0
Okay, so the whole “convenient marriage” plot is definitely not new, but the author had twists and swoon-worthy moments that encouraged each flip of the page.
Adelaide’s character immediately drew me in. She wasn’t the glamour girl of the regency era, but an overlooked, clumsy young girl who had a tender heart and disheveled appearance. I adored her. But what hooked me the most was the love story. Both Trent and Adelaide found themselves stuck in a situation that forced them into marriage. Though nothing indecent occurred, the speculation was reputation damaging. So now, they landed themselves married to each other as complete strangers. It was beautiful watching their relationship grow and love blossom. The tender things Trent invented to capture his bride’s heart poked at mine. Endearingly sweet, especially for a man who’d been known for his tough pugilist skills.
But what impacted my heart the most was spiritual theme of the story. Love is a choice. It goes beyond feelings and sentiments. It climbs higher than mere words. It’s a decision. Like how God chose to love us even while we were sinners.
So yes, two thumbs, five stars, and all that jazz! It’s worth your time and will leave your heart refreshed with a happy sigh.
