Wonderfully Refreshing
The Elusive Miss Ellison by Carolyn Miller is the most delightful Christian historical romance. It is a debut novel and the first in the Regency Brides series which promises to be wonderful.
The novel is very reminiscent of Jane Austen’s Pride And Prejudice, my favourite read, with prejudices and misunderstandings as well as the desire of mothers to make good matches for their daughters.
Carolyn Miller has drawn some wonderful characters. Her heroine is a very modern lady for 1813, with a social conscience. Her forward thinking enables children to be educated. She gives of herself both physically and materially. Her heart rules her head in matters of the poor.
