An Unlikely Proposition
by Rosalyn Eves
I received a free copy of An Unlikely Proposition through Austenprose PR for a book tour. Thank you so much for this opportunity!
Historical romances are always a joy to read! This one was no different. I especially enjoy the historical romances set around the seasons, reading about extravagant parties and societal events. Always so entertaining. I truly love the setting of all the different societal events we get to see as well! This one had some I hadn’t seen before and led to some interesting story arcs.
I’ll admit this one was a bit hard to get into. The start captured my attention instantly, I loved following Eleanor. She was so sure of herself and knew what she wanted and wasn’t going to let anything get in her way. But as we started to meet the rest of our characters, I struggled to keep straight who was who and who was connected to whom. The constant switching back and forth between the given names and proper names just got a little confusing. I even had to circle back to some pages to refresh my memory. As I continued on it became easier to keep them all straight.
Despite the amount of characters we see, this kept my attention easily. I flowed through this swiftly, I wanted to see how things would play out. The romance was so tender, definitely being more of a slow burn, we don’t see much interaction with either of our main characters and their romances until about halfway through. However, I see that mostly due to the fact both of our mains were against the idea of falling in love again. So letting themselves discover that connection and deciding to pursue it was truly interesting!
I highly recommend this to anyone who’s a fan of historical romances set around a fashionable society and more of slow-burn romances!
