A perfect mix of romance, intrigue, growth, danger and history! A great read.
Set just before the French revolution, this book depicts circumstances and attitudes prevalent during that period without losing the plot/story in the history. The characters are life like in their flaws, vulnerability, and attitude about change. The main female, Dacia, is an aristocrat comfortable in her surroundings and unaware of the struggles of others. With the death of her brother and her being set up to take the blame, she begins a journey to England to save her life. Along the way she begins to see the suffering and struggles of the lower class, who still are willing to help her. In hiding she begins to grow in the knowledge of the value of all others, their circumstances, and struggles. With those changes comes the growing attraction to Master Richard. When her safety and the safety of those who have sacrificed to save her are at risk it will take all of her courage as well as her rescuers courage to keep everyone safe. I was given a free copy in exchange for an honest review.

A REVOLUTION OF HEARTS by RHONDA GIBB HINRICHSEN is a most enjoyable historical romance which takes place in 1789, just before the start of the French revolution.
When Mlle Dacia de Prideaux escapes France and ends up in service as Louise Bertrand at Brooksfield Hall in England, she finally realizes how hard she has always been on her servants, and that she is really no better than those she despised as inferior.
Richard Harris, her employer, is a master of disguises and wears many hats! He desperately wants to know the beautiful Louise's secret.
I do not want to tell you any more for fear of spoiling the read for you excepting to say that it is a period novel, rich in action, suspense, romance and pretense. There are some really interesting characters.
I recommend A Revolution Of Hearts to anyone who enjoys this genre.
I was given a free copy of the book by NetGalley from Covenant Communications. The opinions in this review are completely my own.
