I have read several books by Rachel Anderson in the past couple of years which I've enjoyed tremendously, she's never disappointed and I look forward to reading more from her in the future. I was given this ebook in exchange for an honest review and here it is: 
 Having already read The Fall of Lord Drayson (Tanglewood #1), I was thrilled to begin reading this second book of the series. This book is a stand-alone read so while you might want to read the first book, there is no need to read it before picking up this one. 
 Once again Rachel Anderson hits the spot with this delightful regency romance that kept me turning the pages from start to finish. 
 I just loved Cora, her bravery, her instinct of right and wrong, her forthrightness. She is exactly the kind of heroine I want to be rooting for and I did. Once in the Ludlow household, she was not magically transformed, she had realistic strengths and struggles and I love how she handled all of it, especially how she handled herself around Jonathan, who certainly could not help but admire her, as I did. 
 (view spoiler)[I really loved how Cora's innate ability to understand people and give them an opportunity to explain themselves and have a second chance. How she turned a crew of staff into a family but that she didn't bow down to her obnoxious parents as many young women would feel pressured to do (particularly in that era), she knows her mind and can stand up for herself. (hide spoiler)] 
 I look forward to reading the next book in this series.
