Book Review: A Lady At Willowgrove Hall, by Sarah E. Ladd

My Thoughts About the Book:

If you love Downton Abbey and Jane Austen books, then you are going to love “A Lady At Willowgrove Hall” by Sarah E. Ladd. I didn’t read the first two books in the “Whispers on the Moors” series, but after reading this one, Book #3, it is a priority for me to go back and pick those up to read as well. The historical fiction is right in line with this time period and perfect for those who love all things Victorian and classic literature.

The characters, Cecily Faire and Nathaniel Stanton are sure to make a way into your heart. The attention to detail, the depth of the characters and storyline made “A Lady at Willgrove Hall” one of my favorites so far this fall. I know you fall in love with Cecily and Nathaniel as much as I did, there were times when my heart actually hurt for them. Truly a sweet get away right in the palm of your hands.

About the book:

Her secret cloaks her in isolation and loneliness.

His secret traps him in a life that is not his own.

Cecily Faire carries the shame of her past wherever she treads, knowing one slip of the tongue could strip away everything she holds dear. But soon after accepting the position of lady’s companion at Willowgrove Hall, Cecily finds herself face-to-face with a man well-acquainted with the past she’s desperately hidden for years.

Nathaniel Stanton has a secret of his own — one that has haunted him from birth and tied him to his father’s position as steward of Willowgrove. To protect his family, Nathaniel dares not breath a word of the truth. But as long as the shadow looms over him, he’ll never be free to find his own way in the world. He’ll never be free to fall in love.

When the secrets swirling within Willowgrove Hall come to light, Cecily and Nathaniel must confront a painful choice: Will they continue running from the past . . . or will they stand together and build a future without the suffocating weight of secrets long suffered?
