Suspicion

Imogen Rockford lost her parents, her uncle, and her aunt all in one devastating night in England when she was ten years old. Her cousin, Lucia, became the duchess and sole heir to her newly deceased parents’ estate, Rockford Manor, while Imogen moved back to New York, hoping she would never have to step on English soil again. Unfortunately, Lucia is found dead on her property, and Imogen is the only one left who can take her place as the new duchess. Imogen decides to journey back to Rockford Manor and embody her new role to the best of her ability. Once there, she meets the boy she always loved as a child whenever she visited Rockford Manor, Sebastian Stanhope. Imogen becomes enveloped in a setting filled with romance, danger, deception, betrayal, and even magic.

This novel was brilliant! I loved every moment reading this perfect blend of The Princess Diaries and Downton Abbey. The characters were portrayed beautifully, and I loved getting to know them intimately. Imogen and Sebastian were made for each other and their romance was not only believable, but electrifying! The mystery surrounding Lucia’s death keeps you guessing until the very end. A highly satisfying read!
