I want to express my gratitude to @sarahladdauthor, @tlcbooktours, and Thomas Nelson - Zondervan @tnzfiction for the wonderful book.
This book was fantastic, with its blend of historical fiction, mystery, and romance set in Regency England. The story was captivating from the very beginning, and I was thoroughly engrossed. I absolutely adored Olivia, a strong and self-assured character with a deep knowledge of antiquities. She stands out among other women, and that's what draws Lucas to her, whom she knew in her childhood. Her bravery is remarkable, and her vulnerability around social elites adds depth to her character.
The supporting characters are equally delightful and cunning, depending on the situation. The vivid descriptions of the era, including the house party, carriage rides, and London scenery, are simply beautiful. The mystery surrounding the counterfeit pieces added a layer of depth to the story.
If you have a penchant for the Regency era, mystery, and a hint of romance, I wholeheartedly recommend this book.
