THE HOUSE OF STONE AND IVY by Anita Stansfield

THE HOUSE OF STONE AND IVY by Anita Stansfield. I have read several other books by Anita many years ago and had a hard time with them. However, this plot sounded really interesting so I thought I'd like to give this one a try. Unfortunately, my copy didn't arrive in time for this post, but I look forward to reading it and seeing what I think after all these years. I'll let you know! Be sure to enter to win your own copy and stop by the other reviews on the tour.

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 other. 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?

LEGALLY AND LAWFULLY YOURS by Anita Stansfield — #reviews #books #covenant #amreading


LEGALLY AND LAWFULLY YOURS by Anita Stansfield. This was a cute romance. It gripped me from the beginning, but as the story progressed I lost interest. The situation worked well, however, I felt like the danger wasn't real enough for me. Granted, I've never been in this type of situation and I image the fear is very real, but I didn't feel it as a reader. The kids were darling, as was the couple. There were spots where I felt like the tension was rising, but for me it fell flat. This is a clean read that I can recommend to just about everyone though. 

:) :) :)

Following the revelation of her fiancé’s philandering ways, high-powered New York attorney Shannon Turney’s wedding is off. At a time like this, the last thing she can handle is family drama. But when she learns how far her brother’s and sister-in-law’s lives have spiraled out of control, the only thought in her mind is the safety of her young niece and nephew. After Shannon is granted custody, she and the children are eager to run long and far from their problems. 
The end of the road is Sugar City, a place as delightful as its name implies. In the tiny town, Shannon gets much more of a change than she bargained for. Welcomed with open arms by the townspeople, including the handsome local veterinarian, Shannon and the children slowly begin to heal. But when their idyllic existence is threatened by the return of the children’s mother, Shannon has no choice but to return to the courtroom she left behind. She has one last legal battle to fight, and the outcome may mean losing everything she loves.
