Helen Hollick's English Discovering Diamonds review web site has long been my go to site for learning about new, high quality historical fiction. Thus I was thrilled to learn that the site planned to review my most recent novel, Undisciplined Ardor. I was even more thrilled when the review came out. It is a rave!
The reviewer, Robyn Pearce writes, "Fast-paced, unpredictable and delightful are my descriptors of this story. It’s well-written, with amusing and believable storylines and characters. " She adds, "the twists and turns keep the pages turning. "
Finally, I noted that the blog has declared Undisciplined Ardor a "Discovered Diamond," a status it only grants a few of the books it reviews.
The thing that makes me happiest about this review is that Discovering Diamonds is an English review site that rarely reviews Regency-set romances written by American authors. Their reviewers respect historical accuracy and high quality prose. That its Reviewer enjoyed my book so much tells me that I achieved my goal of writing a book that is both a satisfying romance and a story that respect the historical truth of the period in which it is set.
