Book Review: A Promise Broken by Kim Anderson

 

Blurb

Alice and her sister were taken by their mother many years ago and raised in a quaint little cottage as commoners. Their mother has now become ill and has decided it is in the girls' best interest to be returned to their father, hoping that Lord Hastings has fixed the mistake that he made. Alice finds out that her father is one of the richest Dukes in England. It was not long before Alice found out why her mother took her and her sister away from the life that they were born into. A contract was created by her father and his best friend, a contract for her to marry a man she doesn't even know. Now Alice's fate is in the hands of a father she doesn't know and a man that already thinks he owns her.

My Review - 3 1/2 of 5 stars - 

3 1/2 stars. The story could have been stronger, but I loved the possibility of its direction. Alice did not want to marry Seral as she did not know him. Seral was determined to honor the contract between the families. There was too much repetition in the reasons why they each wanted what they did. Once feelings and emotions began to come into play, the story should have picked up tempo. It ended in an HEA, but didn't need to take this long to get there.

I received a copy of this story through Chaotic Creatives, and this is my unsolicited review.
