This is an entertaining story about a Miss Isadora
Delafield, a New York city heiress in the 1880s. Her high society mother wants her
to marry a visiting Duke from England but Izzie has heard alarming tales about
the deaths of the Duke’s former wives.
She accepts help from her best friend and a couple of others who are also alarmed at
the prospect of the Duke getting his hands on Izzie and her fortune. Izzie steals away under the guise of
answering help wanted ads in Pennsylvania, a prospect of which she is woefully
unprepared. Mr. Ian MacKenzie hires her
and soon realizes that she is not who her references portrayed her to be. Much occurs after this to include 4 orphaned
children, an old couple, and various cows, horses, chickens and assorted other
farm animals. This was a fun read!
I have enjoyed everything of Jen Turano’s that I have read
thus far and highly recommend this book if you want some lively entertainment.
I received a copy of this book from Bethany House through
NetGalley in exchange for a review.
