Why read it?

2 authors picked Lakeshire Park as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I took a chance on a new (to me) author this year. It wasn’t a completely random pick as I’ve enjoyed other books from the same publisher. This was easy to select as one of my recent favorites. Her hero is channeling Mr. Darcy with his poor first impression and subsequent attempts to forge a relationship with the endearingly sympathetic heroine. I’ve already read a second book by Megan Walker and plan to seek out more.

There is something alluring about the regency era that makes you want to curl your hair and go to a ball. The genre is full of beautiful, well-written books. Lakeshire Park stands out in the crowd thanks to its gentle honesty, delightful prose, and believable romance. Sprinkled with comedic scenes, regency-era details, and a couple you can’t help rooting for! I read this one in one sitting and didn’t want to come back to reality.
