I am reviewing a copy of Castle of Refuge through Thomas Nelson~~Fiction and NetGalley:
From the time she was a child, Audrey wanted her life to be extraordinary. But as the daughter of a viscount born in late fourteenth-century England, the only thing expected of her was to marry until an act of malice by her sister. Maris lost her prospect four years prior when her sister pushed her into the fire, burning par of her face and prospect. Though Maris was sent away, twenty year old Audrey is still suffering the scars of her sister’s cruelty. When her father announces his plans to marry off his damaged daughter and bring Maris home, Audrey decides to flee in search of her true destiny.
Audrey soon discovers life outside her home is dangerous and Audrey soon finds herself attacked, sick, and in desperate need of help. She is taken in at Dericott Castle to be nursed back to health. While Audrey is there she decides to keep her identity a secret and work as a servant in the castle. But she doesn’t count on falling in love with the young and handsome Lord Dericott, who lost his arm several months earlier and bears scars of his own.
In the meantime Edwin Lord Dericott is curious about the new, well-educated servant’s identity. The only thing he knows that he is quickly becoming smitten with her. When the man Audrey’s father wanted her to marry comes looking for her, she and Edwin must make life-changing decisions about what to believe and whether or not love is truly worth trusting.
I give Castle of Refuge five out of five stars!
Happy Reading!
