A Hero for Miss Hatherleigh by Carolyn Miller

At Grayton Beach in FL. 

A Hero for Miss Hatherleigh by Carolyn Miller is the first book in the Daughters of Aynsley series.  This new series follows the three daughters of Viscount Aynsley. In A Hero for Miss Hatherleigh, the oldest daughter, Caroline Hatherleigh, is sent to Devonshire to visit her grandmother and to get away from a current problem.  While she is in Devonshire, she meets a scientist-fossil hunter named Mr. Kirby and his sister who have secrets of their own.  This is a delightful book with a very satisfying ending.

A Hero for Miss Hatherleigh has an absolutely stunning cover.  You feel like you are standing with Miss Hatherleigh on the cliffs of Devonshire. I believe the cover is as fabulous as the book. This book is  a great example of regency writing at its best.   A Hero for Miss Hatherleigh  includes balls, high society, and delightfully interesting characters.  But on top of all that, it includes a fossil scientist. I really enjoyed reading and thinking about how a fossil hunting scientist fit into the regency time period.

Ms Miller brings the gospel into her stories in such a natural way.  I loved watching Caroline's faith grow throughout the story.

This is one of my new favorite books from Carolyn Miller.  I look forward to the next two books in the series. I highly recommend A Hero for Miss Hatherleigh.

I was given the book by the publisher and not required to write a  review.
