Description

What if the title, the estate, the life of security and splendor… what if it isn’t enough?

Strong-willed and beautiful, debutante Katherine Ramsey feels ready to take the London social season by storm, and she must. Her family estate, Highland Hall, has been passed to older male cousin Sir William Ramsey, and her only means of securing her future is to make a strong debut and find a proper husband. With her all-knowing and meddling aunt as a guide, Katherine is certain to attract suitors at the lavish gatherings, sparkling with Great Britain’s elite.
 
When a shocking family scandal sidelines Katherine, forcing her out of the social spotlight, she keeps a low profile, volunteering with the poor in London’s East End. Here Katherine feels free from her predictable future, and even more so as a friendship with medical student Jonathan Foster deepens and her faith in God grows. But when Katherine is courted anew by a man of wealth and position, dreams of the life she always thought she wanted surface again. Torn between tradition and the stirrings in her heart for a different path, she must decide whom she can trust and love—and if she will choose a life serving others over one where she is served.

Set in Edwardian England, this sequel to "Governess of Highland Hall" now turns to Katherine, the oldest of the 2 Ramsey daughters that are in the care of William who inherited the estate. Almost all of this story is set in London, as Kate 'comes out' into Society under the care of her Aunt Louisa. The story continues with an 'upstairs/downstairs' look at life, though the main focus of the story is on the Ramsey family. I enjoyed getting to know Jonathan Foster (Julia's brother) who is in his final year of medical school in London. The characters and story have depth, and they are easy to connect with. I would highly recommend this book. Thank you to Netgalley & Waterbrook Multnomah Publishers for a free ARC.
