I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. This is the first book that I have read (technically, I listened to the audiobook!) by Jennie, and I am a fan. I love an enthralling Regency read. I quickly fell in love with Miles's gentleness and kindness towards Dorothea. Their goals for marriage were so different. I love that Dorothea wrote Miles off from the beginning, but their chemistry was always there! I love how Miles wanted to take care of his mom. She was living in a crumbling estate, and he wanted to marry a lady with a large dowry to fix up the estate and take care of his mom. I also loved Dorothea's relationships with her family, especially her sister. Jennie did a great job of including historical accuracy, romance, and personal growth in this story. Stevie Zimmerman did a great job narrating this story. Her voices were so good! One of the voices reminded me of Susannah Harker as Jane Bennett in the 1995 Pride and Prejudice TV mini-series. I recommend this book! *This is a clean closed-door Regency romance book.

A Brilliant Match was such an enjoyable beginning to a new clean Regency series. I listened to the audio version of this story and thought that the narrator did a very good job. Dorothea and Miles each had certain objectives when they came to London. Although Miles did not desire to have to marry for money, his estate was in dire need of funds. Dorothea was very focused on making what she had been taught was a good match, meaning marrying a peer. These two didn’t plan to fall in love, but it was clear that the attraction was there right from their first meeting. I really felt for them both. Dorothea had a lot to learn about matters of the heart and it was a sweet journey to see her discover what really mattered. And Miles was such a great character. I liked that he valued what he felt for Dorothea more than money. They had a rocky road to finding happiness and I wondered how the author would bring a solution around that was believable, but she did! I am looking forward to reading more books in this series and following along as Dorothea’s siblings find happiness. I received a complimentary copy of this book. All opinions are my own.

This is a delightful clean romance. Her writing is truly inspiring and beautiful for this time period. It took a little while to get into the story but I overall really enjoyed it and I’m excited to read/listen to more from this author!!

I thoroughly enjoyed this sweet regency era story. I listened to it, and the narration was so well done. I enjoy this author because I can count on her stories to be sweet, clean, and low stress. Think of a regency era Hallmark story. It will leave a smile on your face and your spirit lifted. *I was given a copy of this book to listen to, and this is my honest opinion.
