A review by bookmadjo
Unexpectedly Wed to the Officer by Jenni Fletcher
5.0
This is the second book in the Regency Belle’s of Bath series by Jenni Fletchers. In the first book An Unconventional Countess (see my review here) reference was made to Sebastian Fortini, the brother of Anna, although he was away in the Navy. Henrietta, the heroine in Book 2 became manager of the biscuit shop previously run by Anna Fortini.
The first meeting between Sebastian and Henrietta was so amusing. I adored the way Sebastian kept coming up with excuses so he could stay near Henrietta, and he was such a kind and honourable man, just perfect to ease her distrust of men, because of previous experiences.
I loved the subplot involving Henrietta’s brother and her three young nephews, and the way in which their storyline was resolved.
I didn’t think I could love this book as much as I loved the first book but this was such a delightful feel-good comfort read that I think I fell in love with Henrietta and Sebastian almost as much as I fell for Anna and Samuel in Book One. This fills me with so much excitement for Book Three which is coming very soon.
