Summary
When Eloise Blackburn finds a strange gentleman perched in the leafy branches of an ash tree, she has strong suspicions he is not who he says he is. After all, the neighboring Allen family has never mentioned a cousin named Crispin from the West Indies. And what's this he's saying about a missing inheritance and a secret passageway in Allen Abbey?
Despite Eloise's misgivings, her family finds Crispin Allen's story entirely plausible, and she is soon thrust into an adventure with a cheeky stranger who seems intent on winning more from her than just her help in his quest....

Great narration of from Maria Johnson, whose narration brings you back into the Regency time. You can hear and feel angst, drama and romance.

So the he finds himself taking refuge in an ash tree . At the same time he finds he is rescuing Eloise from a fall. Crispin explains who he is but Eloise is not convinced that he is who he says he is. That is until her parents recognize him and welcome him with open arms. Friendship blooms into love. But their love will have to wait until Crispin can recover his inheritance despite the obstructions thrown his way by the greedy family that lives on the estate

Historical Romance
…without too much history!
I received this title free, for which I’m very grateful.
As a Georgette Heyer fan, I’m always on the lookout for interesting HR Tales and this is one of them! Interesting characters (including a precocious younger sister). No character is wasted either.
This is an enjoyable, gentle story and a new author for me to watch out for.

Brilliant story and narration.
Rosanne E. Lortz has outdone herself with this book: it is totally delightful. I loved the amazing characters, the sweet romance, the entertaining story, the witty humour, and the brilliant narration by Maria Johnson.
A review copy of this book was sent to me by the narrator. All of the above opinions are my own.
