About the Book

Picture
Orphaned as children, Hennie and Lottie share an unbreakable friendship. Together, they suffered the horrors of orphanages and the workhouse, and now grown, they continue to rely on each another. When Lottie approaches Hennie about a possible position at a manor house, Hennie is eager to work alongside her dear friend. However, to secure the positions as stable hands, they will have to undergo a bold act of deception: the women must disguise themselves as men.
Upon arriving at the manor, Hennie is stunned. Her new position is at Ivy Manor—the beautiful estate where her mother was employed long ago and where Hennie was raised until her mother’s death. Hennie has wonderful memories of her friendship with the son of the house, Jack, and is shocked and dismayed to learn he has vanished. Living in disguise at the manor allows her to gradually uncover the truth of Jack’s disappearance and eventually find him. Both Hennie and Jack are thrilled to be reunited, and their friendship is renewed. Soon, their relationship blossoms . . . and threatens their determination to remain concealed. With so much at stake, will they be prepared to risk everything for love?

Review

The House of Ivy and Stone by Anita Stansfield is a beautiful and well thought out story.  Stansfield has written a unique plot that takes place in the regency era.  It’s written in a way that regency romance novels are not typically written.  This adds delightful twist and turns in this delightful story.  Readers will enjoy this story focused on survival, friendship, trust, and romance.  Stansfield’s stories never disappoint.  Readers will definitely want to pick up this intriguing historical regency romance novel.
