About the Book

Picture
From the publisher of the USA TODAY bestselling & #1 Amazon bestselling Timeless Romance Anthology series in Clean & Wholesome Romance, comes the Timeless Romance Singles line. 

FROM CAIRO, WITH LOVE: A brand new historical romance novella from bestselling author Nancy Campbell Allen. 

Valentine Baker longs for adventure, so when the opportunity comes to travel to Venice and be a companion for the unconventional Contessa, she takes it--but they don’t stay in Venice long. Valentine finds herself on a ship bound for Cairo so the Contessa can hunt down a thief at one of her archaeological digs there. Before they ever get close to the coast of Egypt, however, the ship is threatened by a violent storm and someone has an ulterior motive for sticking close to the Contessa and her traveling companions.

Mr. Maxwell is assigned to protect the Contessa and the charming Valentine. He tries to keep his distance, but her warm nature and easy laugh draw him in. He soon comes to cherish their time together, until someone attempts to drug him, and the aftermath reveals serious consequences for Valentine. He’ll do anything to keep her safe and her reputation intact, yet with treachery on board and his heart at stake, Mr. Maxwell must make a choice that will change his life forever. Can he win the woman of his dreams or will whoever wants to hurt them get close enough to take away his one chance for love?

Review

Nancy Campbell Allen’s novella From Cairo, With Love is a sweet and fun romance that readers will thoroughly enjoy.  It is about a young women, Valentine Baker; she longs for an adventure and gets it when the opportunity for her to travel to Venice and be the companion of a Contessa on a ship to Cairo, Egypt.  But little does Valentine know what awaits her aboard the ship—plenty of adventure and a bit of unexpected romance.  Allen builds her story and characters from page one, causing readers to become hooked and fall in love with them.  For a novella, Allen does well in completely developing her characters and not rushing the story.  This is a sweet romance that readers will not want to miss.

I enjoyed this author's Isabelle Webb series, which is partially set in the same area of the world. I'm sure a sweet romance would be just as good!
