Healing Hazel (The Blue Orchid Society #3) by Jennifer Moore -- Review

About the Book

Hazel Thornton has one great ambition: to help the sick and wounded as a nurse. But that dream can never become a reality. After a devastating childhood trauma, she has spent her life battling fits of panic that make it impossible to finish her studies. Everything changes, however, when a trip to Spain takes a perilous turn that derails her plans to visit her father for Christmas and immediately plunges her into the dangers of a brutal war.

With single-minded focus, she springs into action to help her fellow travelers. To ensure their continued care, she begins work at a Spanish hospital alongside Dr. Jim Jackson, a man whose only emotion seems to be wariness of his new assistant. Armed with gifts of support from each of her dearest friends, a group that dubs themselves the Blue Orchid Society, Hazel embarks on a journey of hope and healing to battle the demons of her past with the help of the doctor who has captured her heart.

Review

Another fantastic Victorian adventure filled-romance from author Jennifer Moore.  Readers will fall in love with and easily relate to the main character, Hazel, as they come to know her through struggles, including her dream of becoming a nurse, and several health issues (panic attacks and PTSD). Hazel is a brave and strong woman who wrestles with finding the best way to handle and make the best of life.  And of course, the romance in the story is the perfect addition.  A well-written and sweet story that readers will come to adore and not want to put down.
