To Win Her Favor (A Belle Meade Plantation Novel, Book 3) by Tamera Alexander

 

I have absolutely LOVED this series! Tamera Alexander is not only a fabulously gifted writer, but one of my favorites! I order her books, as soon as I know they are available and she has not once failed to write a novel that goes beyond pleasure. So once again, she hits a home run!

To Win Her Favor, is in that same flavor of writing as the previous novels in this series. Set in a historical setting, with some real live historical characters thrown in but still it is fiction. However, it reads as if it is life leaping off the pages. While being both a very enjoyable read, it still speaks to you on a deeper level and moves you. The characters are so well written and I enjoy the interplay between them, and not just the main characters but the secondary ones who grab hold of your heart as well. The storyline is compelling and I found the historical truths and life truths, peppered in to be of great interest.

This is one of those novels, I wish I could have set down and read straight through. However, being the mom now of three young boys (one of which is not even three months old yet), that was not possible. Still the story stuck with me and I had no trouble getting back into its flow and enjoyed every spare moment I got to spend within its' pages. I do so hope you will give this one a read! And if you haven't read the previous novels in this series, you absolutely should!
