Review: The Ladies of Ivy Cottage (Tales from Ivy Hill) by Julie Klassen


Blurb (from Amazon):

Return to Ivy Hill in The Ladies of Ivy Cottage as friendships deepen, romances blossom, and mysteries unfold.

Living with the two Miss Groves in Ivy Cottage, impoverished gentlewoman Rachel Ashford is determined to earn her own livelihood . . . somehow. When the village women encourage her to open a subscription library with the many books she has inherited or acquired through donations, Rachel discovers two mysteries hidden among them. A man who once broke her heart helps her search for clues, but will both find more than they bargained for?

Rachel's friend and hostess, Mercy Grove, has given up thoughts of suitors and fills her days managing her girls' school. So when several men take an interest in Ivy Cottage, she assumes pretty Miss Ashford is the cause. Exactly what--or who--has captured each man's attention? The truth may surprise them all.

Meanwhile, life has improved at the coaching inn and Jane Bell is ready to put grief behind her. Now if only the man she misses would return--but where is he?

As the women of Ivy Hill search for answers about the past and hope for the future, might they find love along the way?



My Review:

The Ladies of Ivy Cottage is book two from Julie Klassen‘s Tales from Ivy Hill series. I enjoyed the story. However, it was hard to get into at first for me. Once I got about half of the way through, I did not want to put it down from then on.

I give this book 3 1/2 stars and hope to read the third book of the series when it releases in the future and see what will happen next.

I received this book from the publisher. This review is 100 percent my own honest opinion.
