Last year I had the pleasure of reading the first book in this series, A GIRL LIKE YOU. While I enjoyed the first novel, I wasn’t able to fit this second one into my review schedule for this spring but I still wanted to share the release of the next book with all my readers!
A RING OF TRUTH picks finds the newly engages Inspector Howard and sweet Henrietta in quite the predicament…..meeting each other’s families!
This is quite the difficult task because Clive has neglected to tell Henrietta that he is in fact the heir to the Howard estate and fortune, and Henrietta has just discovered that her mother has been hiding secrets about her past as well.
When Clive brings Henrietta to the family estate to meet his parents, they are less than enthused about his impoverished intended. Left alone in this extravagant new world when Clive returns to the city, Henrietta finds herself more at home with the servants than his family, much to the disapproval of Mrs. Howard and soon gets caught up in the disappearance of an elderly servant’s ring, not realizing that in doing so she has become part of a bigger, darker plot.
As Clive and Henrietta attempt to discover the truth in the two very different worlds unraveling around them, they both begin to wonder: Are they meant for each other after all?
Early reviews of this next installment sound promising with some calling the series a dramatic and mysterious love story, full of historical slang and fashion. A RING OF TRUTH delivers romance, historical charm and a plot that will keep you guessing.
This is also a series that would be perfect for fans of books like The Forgotten Room by Karen White, The Other Daughter by Lauren Willig and The Adventuress by Tasha Alexander.
I am looking forward to reviewing this book hopefully in the early summer because it sounds like a thrilling follow up to the first book! Don’t miss out on this wonderful new mystery series!
