I'm always on the lookout for a new book by Jen Turano so I was thrilled when I came across this! It lived up to my high expectations for another great book by her. I hope you all will enjoy it as much as I did.
Book Title: After a Fashion
Publication Date: February 24, 2015
Publisher: Bethany House
Description:
Miss Harriet Peabody dreams of the day she can open up a shop selling refashioned gowns to independent working women like herself. Unfortunately, when an errand for her millinery shop job goes sadly awry due to a difficult customer, she finds herself out of an income.
Mr. Oliver Addleshaw is on the verge of his biggest business deal yet when he learns his potential partner prefers to deal with men who are settled down and wed. When Oliver witnesses his ex not-quite-fiance cause the hapless Harriet to lose her job, he tries to make it up to her by enlisting her help in making a good impression on his business partner.
Harriet quickly finds her love of fashion can't make her fashionable. She'll never truly fit into Oliver's world, but just as she's ready to call off the fake relationship, fancy dinners, and elegant balls, a threat from her past forces both Oliver and Harriet to discover that love can come in the most surprising packages.
My Review:
Jen Turano probably writes the funniest books I've ever read! You are constantly laughing at the characters antics and their conversations with each other. It has an interesting plot that's not suspenseful but still enthralling to read. Also, it teaches an important lesson of how we can always depend on God in every situation of our life. I'm glad this is the first book of a series. I already can't wait to read about Lucetta's, Millie's, and Everett's stories--A really great book!
My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
