A Brilliant Match by Jennie Goutet

A Brilliant Match by Jennie Goutet is the first in The Earl’s Sisters series and it is a true delight!  Lady Dorothea Rowlandson is the first daughter of the late earl.  She is just launching into society due to the timing of his death.  She is determined to form an advantageous match to help her family.  Miles Shaw is a charming young man with an estate that is falling apart.  He needs to marry well to help the estate.  But he wants a love match like his parents.  What are they both to do?

Miles is a great hero who pursues Dorothea so charmingly.  A hero who dances with grace is truly sigh worthy!  As we learn his back story you can not help, but love him even more!   Dorothea’s struggles with herself played out so well on the pages of the story.  The alternating POV’s with Miles and Dorothea had me engaged and hoping for their match!   The secondary characters added depth and interest to the story.  I found myself wrapped up and invested in the London Season and learned more about Regency times through the author’s fabulous writing. 

This story was a pure delight!  I loved the banter, romance, and watching each character change and grow.  I am so thrilled it is the first of what will prove to be a wonderful series!  I highly recommend A Brilliant Match by Jennie Goutet! 

I was given a complimentary copy and not required to write a positive review.
