MY THOUGHTS.....
A female poacher, an English gentleman, his tormented sister, and an unknown stalker...I loved this new novel by Michelle Griep! She swept me back to early 19th-century England in this thrilling story that's both mystery and romance. They were separated by social class, but I loved the magnetic connection between Juliet and Henry. Her present circumstances may have hidden her former status, but Henry didn't doubt that Juliet was a lady. And Juliet couldn't ignore Henry either!
Griep cleverly left a trail of deceptive clues in Juliet and Henry's frantic search for his sister Charity. Twists and turns kept me turning the pages, and the reveal of the villain's identity was like the finale of a fine-tuned symphony! And then the story's ending...oh, my!
I highly recommend this book to all who enjoy mesmerizing romance, intriguing suspense, and inspiring faith journeys. The Bird of Bedford Manor is Regency fiction at its best, and I would give it more than 5 stars, if I could!
I received a complimentary copy from the author. There was no obligation for a positive review.
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
I hear voices. Loud. Incessant. And very real. Which basically gives me two options: choke back massive amounts of Prozac or write fiction. I chose the latter. Way cheaper. I've been writing since I discovered blank wall space and Crayolas. I seek to glorify God in all that I write...except for that graffiti phase I went through as a teenager. Oops. Did I say that out loud?
