The Nature of a Lady | Roseanna M. White
3 posts | 4 read | 2 to read
1906 Lady Elizabeth "Libby" Sinclair, with her love of microscopes and nature, isn't favored in society. She flees to the beautiful Isles of Scilly for the summer and stumbles into the dangerous secrets left behind by her holiday cottage's former occupant, also named Elizabeth, who mysteriously vanished. Oliver Tremayne--gentleman and clergyman--is determined to discover what happened to his sister, and he's happy to accept the help of the girl now living in what should have been Beth's summer cottage . . . especially when he realizes it's the curious young lady he met briefly two years ago, who shares his love of botany and biology. But the hunt for his sister involves far more than nature walks, and he can't quite believe all the secrets Beth had been keeping from him. As Libby and Oliver work together, they find ancient legends, pirate wrecks, betrayal, and the most mysterious phenomenon of all: love.

What a great beginning to another wonderful series by Ms. White. The characters seemed so real. I enjoyed the interaction and friendship between Libby and Mabena. I think Mamm-wynn was my favorite character. I loved her wit and spunk! The scenery was described so well. I could almost smell the different flowers and the sea air! I can‘t wait for the next installment.

I received this book from the author for my honest review.

Overall, this is an enjoyable turn of the century piece with just enough danger and romance to satisfy fans of either genre.

4/5

What a delightful start to the Secrets of the Isles series! Roseanna White is a master storyteller who weaves a fascinating tale with intriguing plot infused with mystery and suspense, witty dialogue among the 1900 English nobility and commonfolk, lovable characters who are diverse in background and interests, and deeply profound spiritual truths. I received the book from the publisher and opinions are solely my own.
