My Review:
I did not like Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility. But when I saw Pepper Basham had a book coming out loosely based on it, I knew I had to read Sense and Suitability. Why? Because Pepper Basham wrote it. Also, this is Basham's first foray into the Regency genre.
Series: Hearts on the Heath #3
Author: Kristi Ann Hunter
Publisher: Bethany House
Genre: Historical, Christian Fiction, Regency, Romance
Source: Library
My Review:
Enchanting the Heiress is the third and final book in the Hearts on the Heath series. It can be read as a standalone novel, but I recommend reading the first two books, or at least the second, as Jonas and Harriet are first introduced in those books. It will give you a broader understanding of their character and interactions with their friends.

My Review:
Winning the Gentleman is the second book in the Hearts on the Heath series. While it could be read as a stand-alone novel, I recommend reading Vying for the Viscount first, as that is where we are first introduced to Aaron Whitworth (our mmc).

I don't know why I waited so long to read Vying for the Viscount. I have enjoyed every Kristi Ann Hunter book I have read, and this is no exception. Anne Marie Giedon does a fantastic job with the narration.

Technically, this is the second in the series. The first book is The Blackmailed Bride, and follows Marcus's sister, Olivia. I loved that book, so I picked this one up to read.

I immediately started listening to The Widow of Falbrooke Court once I finished The Lady of Larkspur Vale by Kasey Stockton. I wanted to know if Amelia and Charles mend their fences and fall in love.
