Reviews of Tangled Hearts

5 blue ribbon review from Romance Junkies.

“In TANGLED HEARTS by ROSEMARY MORRIS Richelda’s life is ever changing, with her never having any control over what happens. Her family's loss of wealth, her parents' deaths, and her dreams of marrying her childhood friend are crushed. Now her aunt wants her to marry someone else of her choosing. Well Richelda believes it is time to take control over her own life and if it means saying no to the handsome Lord Chesney, that is exactly what she plans to do.

As evil followed Richelda, I felt myself grateful that Richelda had started to pay more attention to her own life. Suspense builds, leading to the time of confrontation. Exciting action and many thrilling surprises are found before the story ends. The interactions between Richelda and Chesney are wonderfully entertaining. TANGLED HEARTS is a wonderfully passionate romance in which the true meaning of love is discovered.”

Review of Tangled Hearts by Rosemary Morris from Historical Novel Reviews.

Rosemary Morris weaves a splendid tale that kept me awake until the early morning hours. The characters seem authentic and very well developed, changing and growing more complex as the story unfolds. The prose is smooth and flowing. The burgeoning love between (the heroine) Richelda and (the hero), the viscount, evolves at a realistic pace. I especially enjoyed the tension that led to a highly satisfactory ending that was touched with mystery and decorated with gothic detail. I highly recommend this novel to anyone who loves historical romance and the Queen Anne or Regency era of England’s turbulent history.

"TANGLED HEARTS is a well-written historical romance by debut author Rosemary Morris. I enjoyed this book and found that not only were the characters interesting, the ending had a great twist. All in all a very good book that is sure to please any historical romance reader. Richelda Shaw's life has taken quite an unexpected turn since the death of her parents. It was her father's dying wish that she uphold her ancestral home in lieu of the new King and Queen of England. However, since her parent's death, she has been in a state of poverty and left completely alone. Her only light is her childhood friend, Dudley. After declaring herself to him, she finds out that Dudley isn't the man she thought he was, and although he is quite fond of her, his heart and wallet wants to be married to their friend, Kitty. Lucky for her, her Aunt has intervened and suddenly Richelda finds herself rich and in demand. Aunt Isobel rescues Richelda from the throw of poverty, but with a catch--she is to be betrothed to the handsome Lord Chesney. Although Richelda finds no fault with Lord Chesney, her heart still belongs to Dudley. Now Richelda finds herself in the middle of a battle for affection between Chesney and Dudley, all the while Richelda just wants to find a way to reclaim her ancestral home and keep the promise that she made to her father. Anyone who loves reading historical fiction with the added bonus of a great romance will be captivated by the story Rosemary Morris wrote. TANGLED HEARTS is a wonderful addition to any romance lover's bookshelf. I very much enjoyed the blossoming relationship between Richelda and Chesney, and the twist that this story took at the end really caught me by surprise! I thoroughly enjoyed TANGLED HEARTS by Rosemary Morris. She is definitely an author to be on the lookout for."--Julie Kornhausl, Romance Reader at He

Review for Tangled Hearts by Rosemary Morris

***

Fvie Star Review.

Rosalie Skinner

(Dragonmuse Downunder)

Richelda Shaw swore an oath to her father before he left her as a nine-year-old child. Her oath, to do whatever it takes to resume ownership of their ancestral home, is not an easy promise to fulfill. After her mother’s death, she finds life difficult until her Aunt rescues her from bankruptcy and takes her to London.

Lord Chesney arrives on the scene, as a prospective husband chosen by Richelda’s generous Aunt. The current owner of her ancestral home, marriage to Lord Chesney would mean fulfilling her promise, but she finds her heart belongs to another life long friend.

The chance of finding a family treasure hidden for generations seems remote but could allow her freedom to marry where she chose and redeem the family property. Richelda refuses Lord Chesney’s advances in a determined effort to marry for love rather than for convenience. All the time she is afraid of breaking her promise to her father.

Rosemary Morris takes the reader on a trip back in time. With all the plush furnishings, sumptuous fare and the steamy, noisome cityscape as a backdrop her readers are entertained with a compelling story. Rosemary’s character Richelda is a feisty, independent and intelligent young woman. Lord Chesney is likable and it is hard not to fall in love with this character. Rosemary sculpts her characters with great insight. Even those in supporting roles become familiar and behave with such believable emotions the reader feels as if they know them personally.

Writing with crisp, clear style and accurate depictions, Rosemary Morris gives an authenticity to her novel. Every sense is satisfied as we return to an earlier age of chivalry and romance. The reader wades through the mud, recoils from the stench and is impacted by the noise of London’s streets as we see it through Richelda’s eyes.

Tangled Hearts is a great read, with wonderful characters and a gripping romance that keeps the reader enthralled to its completion.
