Miss Isadora Delafield may be an
heiress, but her life is far from carefree. When her mother begins pressuring
her to marry an elderly and uncouth duke, she escapes from the high society
world she's always known and finds herself to be an unlikely candidate for a
housekeeper position in rural Pennsylvania.
Mr. Ian MacKenzie is known for his savvy business sense and has built his reputation and fortune completely on his own merits. But when his adopted parents are in need of a new housekeeper and Isadora is thrown into his path, he's unexpectedly charmed by her unconventional manner.
Neither Isadora nor Ian expected to find the other so intriguing, but when mysterious incidents on the farm and the truth of Isadora's secret threaten those they love, they'll have to set aside everything they thought they wanted for a chance at happy-ever-after.

My Thoughts:
Jen Turano is one of my favorite go-to writers. With her
introduction to her latest series with Flights of Fancy, Turano did not disappoint. From the first chapter, I was drawn
into the world of Izzy in New York and wanted to know more about this Duke fellow.
Within a couple of chapters, Turano had me laughing out loud as I pictured some
of the images she created with her words. She does a wonderful job at coming up
with really hilarious scenes, but she allows me to have a moment of breather
too. The story moved at a nice pace, and I completely got wrapped up in Izzie
and Taylor's life. True to Turano fashion, the romance had me laughing, and I
loved how she has the couple connect with a piece of literature, which she has
done in a couple of her other books. I love watching the characters interact
during this time period. Turano included a quick moment of suspense near the
end of the novel, and it didn't feel out of place for me. It seemed to fit
right in with what Turano set up in the beginning chapters. Overall, Jen Turano
created another hit out of the park with Flights of Fancy. I anxiously await
what comes next in this series.
I received a complimentary copy of Jen Turano's Flights of Fancy from Bethany House
Publishers, but the opinions stated are all my own.
My Rating:
5 out of 5 stars
