My Sister's Intended

by Rachael Anderson

[phyllish]

Author Rachael Anderson crafted a delightful tale that captured my attention and my emotions from the start in My Sister’s Intended. With endearing characters and witty prose, the story of the naive Prudence attempting to help her sister had me grinning and even laughing out loud at times.

I was led on a merry dance of changing opinions about Brand (Lord Knave), starting with being convinced at one moment that he truly lived up to his title of “knave” and in the next being convinced that he was honorable and true. The irony of the names of the characters, that Knave was not one and Prudence seemed to lack that quality is an example of the playful paradoxes in the story.

Prudence was a delightful character, full of energy, innocence, and spunk. Her love for reading and writing and desire to know what it was like to be in love and the way it drove her to seek answers from Brand made for a great story.

If you enjoy historical novels, this book should be on your “must read” list!
