The Viscounts Convenient Bride by Josie Bonham

Genre: Romantic Fiction

The Viscounts Convenient Bride is book two of The Reluctant Brides series. First published on 1st November 2020. It is available as an Ebook or Paperback.  

Synopsis

Luke, Viscount Enstone’s, resolve to avoid a love match is tested to its limit when he accepts responsibility for the Davenport family.

Luke has found it hard to sort out his late father’s affairs. A dishonest secretary and ailing land agent have left the family estates in disorder. With new people in place, he sets off to one of his smaller properties to discover the extent of an obligation that seems out of keeping with the cold-hearted father he remembers. Why is Miss Kitty Davenport living at Shepley Hall and what was her connection to his father?

Kitty has waited for a long time to find out if the new Viscount Enstone will continue the support his father gave to her family and her patience is wearing thin. Will he carry on paying for her young brother’s education and even assist him in finding a career? For herself, all she needs is help to find a suitable position as a companion and to escape from the unwanted attentions of a persistent suitor.


My Review

I was excited to be given a copy of The Viscounts Convenient Bride in return for my honest review. I thoroughly enjoyed the first book in the series A Good Match For A Major and was looking forward to getting stuck in to the second book. 

The Viscounts Convenient Bride is a well written, slow burning regency period romance that at times followed a similar pattern to the first book but, that did not detract from the story or my enjoyment at all. 

Although this is the second book of the series, and some of the characters feature in the first book, all the characters are strong, loveable, and well developed enough for it to be read as either part of the series or a stand-alone novel.

There were some good twists that kept you guessing but deep down you knew that the two main characters Luke and Kitty were meant for each other and that they would get their happy ever after.

It was a thoroughly enjoyable easy read that I struggled to put down. I can’t wait for the next in the series now.

Thank you, Josie Bonham for allowing me to read and review your fantastic second book.
