As many of you know, I also have an adult book blog called Clean Adult Fiction where I post my reviews of the adult books I read. If I read a great 5 star book, especially when the character is younger, I share it on my teen blog too. This book was WONDERFUL!! The main character is 18, but the love interest is 25, putting it in the ‘New Adult’ genre.

5 STARS: I LOVED IT!!!
Nicole Farrington’s life had never been easy, but it had always been bearable. At least it had been until now. Faced with a horrible marriage her step-brother has contracted for her, she will do anything to get away. She’ll run—run to anyone who might be able to help her. But running blindly down an unknown path may take her to an unexpected destination.
A Man Seeking Answers
Julian Huntington, Earl of Foxley, wants nothing more than to have his carefree life back. Now he is left with a title, a child, and a future that he never expected would be his. He refuses to believe his brother’s death was an accident, no matter what people say. Someone killed him and Julian plans to find out who and why. Maybe then he can go on with his life—his brother’s life. But will the answers he seeks be enough, or will he find love to be a worthier goal?
My Thoughts:
I want to start by saying that I met the author, Jennifer, through book blogging first. I love that she is now an author!! Congratulations Jennifer! Her book blog is Clean Romance Reviews, check it out.
This book was wonderful! The romance was so beautiful and comfortable making the read so enjoyable. Nicole was 18 years old and running from a terrible marriage her step-brother arranged for her to pay his debts. I loved her strength and ability to try and choose her life’s path.
Julian, 25, was the man she goes to for help. He recently inherited a title and property because of the death of his older brother who had a young child. Julian had to learn his new responsibilities not just for his new home but for a new daughter as well all while trying to find a explanation to his brother’s death.
I loved this book! Not only did it have a great romance, but it also had a very intriguing and mystery solving plot. So great! If you love clean regency romance like I do then you’ll LOVE this one.
