My Thoughts on This Book:

 

Most sequels to books leaves you off where the first book ended.. Well, not this one. We 'literally' start back over in time and replay the same period again but through the eyes of different characters. I thought, hmm.. this will be interesting, and oh it so was. Loved it actually. It was great to read about the other main characters from book 1 amidst the storyline of this book.

 

This story takes us on the journey of seamstress Caddy Bainbridge and the local doctor. Will their hearts grow closer or will secrets tear them apart. Can a high class man steal her heart or will it shatter before her eyes.

 

The book was really hard to put down. Loved it!

ABOUT THE BOOK

Set during the Industrial Revolution and the Great Exhibition of 1851, An Honest Heart is a “sitting-room romance” with the feel of a Regency-era novel but the fashions and technological advances of the mid-Victorian age.

Featuring dual romance stories, the main plot involves seamstress Caddy Bainbridge and the choice she must make between two men: one from the aristocracy, the other from the working class. Award-nominated author Kaye Dacus pinpoints the theme of honesty—both men in this love triangle have deep secrets to hide, and Caddy’s choice will be based on which of them can be honest with her.

Courtship . . . cunning . . . candor. Who possesses an honest heart?
