Lady Walmsley, widowed and
childless, is in need of a lady’s companion—and who better than the
lovely Lady Elizabeth? Determined to rescue Elizabeth from her dreary
life in the country, Lady Walmsley secures the help of Kit, the dashing
Earl of Cantwell, in her quest. But the young woman they find is a ghost
of the charming girl they once knew. Taken in by Lady Walmsley, and
with Kit’s enthusiastic encouragement, Elizabeth finds herself pushed
further and further from her empty solitude as she discovers the joy of
truly living. Now, for the first time in her life, she must decide for
herself who she is and if she deserves to be loved.
Review - I had high hopes for Kit and Elizabeth after reading Wager for a Wife and The Gentleman's Deception. After reading Kit and Elizabeth, I wish that there had been more editing done. There was one part where the reader was a part of the entire encounter of two characters and a conversation was mentioned later to another character that never took place. It would have been an easy fix for the author to just add a few lines. There were also parts of the story that would have left Elizabeth a ruined woman if anyone discovered who and where she had been. It seemed like she would have taken more care to guard her reputation. There were also times when she seemed to have called her cousins her Uncle and Aunt. Several of the scenes were enjoyable and entertaining. Lady Walmsley has some really great lines. I admired her determination and spirit. Lady Walmsley felt like the driving force in the novel in helping Elizabeth until Kit started to gain feeling for her. I also liked revisiting some of the characters from Tuft's previous books. I enjoyed seeing Elizabeth discovering herself and forming her own opinion on things. Her character blossoms as she determines her own path and goals. There were several memorable and well-thought out scenes. To learn more about Kit and Elizabeth, click here.
This is a spin-off from The Earl's Betrothal. The kindle version of The Earl's Betrothal is on sale now for $2.99, click here to learn more.
