The Red Cottage by Hannah Linder

The Red Cottage
ABOUT THE BOOK

She forgot she loved him.
He would die to make her remember.


Meg Foxcroft has never minded the tattling village gossip or her uncle’s ill-tempered rebukes. After all, she has Tom McGwen—and one day, they will build their own cottage, paint it red, and live a wonderful life.

But then the unthinkable happens. Meg is attacked, her uncle’s apothecary shop goes up in flames, and when she wakes up in the arms of an eloquent lord, she remembers nothing. Not even her own name.

In a frantic race against time, Tom plunges into dangerous water, bent on sheltering Meg from harm and discovering who wants her dead. Even if she despises him. Even if it’s now the handsome lord she casts her smile upon.

As danger swells and truth comes crashing around them, Meg must confront the past and decide who she trusts—and loves—before the enemy makes the final strike.





MY THOUGHTS.....

Hannah Linder's name on the cover of a book is always an exciting invitation, but this may be her best story yet! Meg Foxcroft's life was marked by uncertainty after a brutal attack, loss of memory, and continued threats on her life. Linder's depiction of these events kept me turning the pages, and her depiction of Meg's emotional state was absolutely riveting!

A beautiful cover, unforgettable characters, and a Scottish setting set the stage for this tantalizing historical romance. I loved Tom's devotion to the woman he had long cherished, and I couldn't decide if Lord Cunningham truly had Meg's best interests at heart. Would Meg's heart make the right choice?

Looking for haunting, melodic storytelling? Search no further, because this is a book to savor and keep! I recommend The Red Cottage to all who enjoy inspirational Regency romance.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Barbour Publishing and was under no obligation to post a review.


My rating: 5 of 5 stars
