A Defense of Honor
by Kristi Ann Hunter
(Haven Manor #1)
Bethany House, 2018, Religious Fiction, 376 p.
Lord Graham Whorten is bored of society. As a 30-something unmarried son of a baron he has seen too many London seasons full on insipid conversation
and social climbing debutantes. He knows he should find a wife but none of the
wealthy belles interests him. Then one night he sees a woman near
his age wearing a dress of an unfashionable color hiding behind a potted
plant at a ball. When he tries to talk with her, she is evasive which
only feeds his curiosity. As he tries to discover who she is, he is
exposed to a dark side of the "Ton" society and
is challenged to examine his own values and behaviors.
Do you have a vacation coming up? Hunter's books make the perfect
caramel-corn reading for riding on airplanes or waiting for the metro. Part mystery and part social commentary, this book is mostly a romance
with a cast of endearing characters we have come to expect in Hunter's
books. Hunter's books are not going to win any literary awards but
are just fun, fluffy, clean, historical romances guaranteed to to make long hours in a cramped airplane seat more enjoyable.
