A Change in Fortune by Jen Turano - Review

Book Blurb:

Rollicking Debut from an Exciting New Author

Lady Eliza Sumner is on a mission. Her fortune was the last thing she had left after losing her father, her fiance, and her faith. Now, masquerading as Miss Eliza Sumner governess-at-large, she's determined to find the man who ran off with her fortune, reclaim the money, and head straight back to London. 

Mr. Hamilton Beckett, much to his chagrin, is the catch of the season, and all the eyes of New York society--all the female ones, at least--are on him. He has no plans to marry again, especially since his hands are full keeping his business afloat while raising his two children alone.

Eliza's hapless attempts to regain her fortune unexpectedly put her right in Hamilton's path. The discovery of a common nemesis causes them to join forces and, before she knows it, Eliza has a whole retinue of people helping her. Eliza's determination not to trust anyone weakens when everyone's antics and bumbling efforts to assist her make her wonder if there might be more important things than her fortune and independence.

When all of Hamilton's and Eliza's best-laid plans fall by the wayside, it will take a riot of complications for them to realize that God just might have had a better plan in mind all along.

My Review:

This is the first book I've read by this author, but it won't be the last! I was shocked to discover that by the end of the first chapter, I was hooked! I loved the way that this author dropped her characters in these hilarious situations. All I could do was sit back and enjoy it! So many characters were introduced, but each one was distinct and easy to remember. I can't wait to read the next one in the series! :)


My Rating:

5 Stars!

I've not read anything by this author. This sounds like a great book. I love it when a story makes me laugh out loud.
Thanks for the detailed review!

Anna, thanks for your great review! This sounds like a story I would enjoy, and I wasn't aware of this author. I've added A CHANGE OF FORTUNE to my Goodreads TBR shelf. Thanks!
