About the Book
Book: Winning Miss Winthrop
Author: Carolyn Miller
Genre: Regency Historical Romance
Release date:March 2018
Click here to get your copy!"Winning Miss Winthrop"by Carolyn Miller is the first book in this new series. It does seem that the characters are from previous books, and no, I don't read them but was able to follow this story. I want to read her others as soon as I can. I did read ""The Elusive Miss Ellison"and enjoyed it so I knew that I would enjoy this book and I am happy to say I did.
This is a story of a second chance of love. Readers will appreciate that faith is part of this story but it is not preachy. I really liked that Catherine and Jonathan were not like their parents but actually cared for others and did things to help others.
About the Author
More from Carolyn
In 2015 I was fortunate enough to visit England and see my sister who was living there at the time. What followed was three weeks of visiting parts of England, Ireland and Scotland in a whistle-stop tour of some of the places I’d long dreamed about visiting, but never thought I’d get the chance: London, Brighton, the Blarney stone in an Irish castle, Chatsworth in the Peak District, Loch Ness and Culloden in the Scottish Highlands, the gorgeous grounds of Dunrobin Castle, and the beautiful Cotswolds of England, which includes World Heritage-listed Bath.
I’ve used many of the places I’ve visited as inspiration behind my historical stories, but none as much as the places I visited while in Bath. Pretty much every place I visited – Sydney Gardens, Bath Abbey, the Pump Room, The Assembly Rooms and more – were mentioned in my story Winning Miss Winthrop, which I view as my homage to Jane Austen’s Persuasion, which vies with Pride and Prejudice as my favorite Austen novel.
I loved my all-too-brief time in Bath, and I love this story, with its depiction of two people learning to overcome the misunderstandings of the past in order to find a future. Winning Miss Winthropis the first book in the Regency Brides: A Promise of Hope series, and has the attention to period detail, romance, banter, and faith threads that readers in the Regency Brides series have come to expect. I hope readers enjoy Catherine and Jon’s story.

Wonderful review, Debbie! I'm looking forward to reading Carolyn's books. Thank you for hosting.
I enjoy historical fiction and this sounds like a great read. Thanks for your review.
Second chance love stories are my favorite, especially historical. Winning Miss Winthrop has captured my interest, especially with the hint of mystery.
So happy you enjoyed! Thanks for sharing your kind words x
