A Lady Unrivaled is the third book in Roseanna M. Whiteâs Ladies of the Manor series, coming after The Lost Heiress and The Reluctant Duchess. I am a HUGE fan of Roseannaâs, and this series to be honest, so Iâve been super excited for this book for quite some time. I absolutely LOVED The Lost Heiress, and even though I hardly believed it possible, I loved The Reluctant Duchess even more, so I just knew I would love this novel as well. And I must confess, I most definitely wasnât disappointed. I already loved both Lord Cayton and Lady Ella, so I knew it wouldnât be hard to fall for their story, and I was right. If only this book had lasted longer!Lady Ella Myerston is such a sweet, innocent, spitfire of a character, and I absolutely love everything about her. She is so set on keeping her brother and his wife safe that she completely disregards her own safety, and that is definitely something to admire. But my absolute favorite thing about her is actually not entirely just about her. My favorite thing is her relationship with Cayton. They are literally the cutest thing, and I couldnât get enough of the two of them.Lord James Cayton is completely and utterly wonderful. Thatâs all I can think to say. Even though I know he doesnât have the best past, and is actually very hard on himself because of it, I can definitely see that he is redeeming himself, and I couldnât help but love him and feel so much compassion for him as he struggled to finally forgive himself for all he had done. Plus, as I watched him fall in love with Ella, my heart was completely taken over, and if I wasnât already sure of his perfection, I certainly was after that.All in all, I absolutely loved every single aspect of this story, and Iâm so sad that the series had to come to an end, but I know Roseanna is already working on a new series, so Iâm super excited to see what that one will hold! Anyway, I cannot imagine giving this book anything other than all five bookshelves, because it already has a permanent place on my all-time favorites list. The themes that focus on Godâs love and redemptive grace made this a story that touched my heart, and the drama and romance made it one Iâll never forget. And all that combined makes it a book I highly recommend.I received a copy of this book from Roseanna and the publisher in exchange for only my honest review.(This review is from my blog, spreadinghisgrace.blogspot.com)
Have you ever been in that place where you really want to read a book because you know itâs going to be wonderful while at the same time you really donât want to because you donât want it to end? Thatâs exactly who I felt as I read A Lady Unrivalved, the third and final installment in Roseanna M. Whiteâs Ladies of the Manor series.Readers met Lady Ella Myerston briefly in The Lost Heiress and got to know her more in The Reluctant Duchess. Now she gets her own story.Loved. This. Book. The bubbly, optimistic personality of Ella perfectly offsets the negative, surly, taciturn (see how I got that Pride & Prejudice reference in there?) attitudes of Lord Cayton (who also made appearances in the previous books in this series).Catching up with the Duke and Duchess of Stafford (Justin and Brook) was a treat, and Brice and Rowena (Duke and Duchess of Nottingham) also make an appearance.The heart of this story is in the personal journeys of both Ella and Cayton. After Ellaâs best friend went mad, she doesnât trust her instincts. How could she not have noticed Stella losing her mind over Ellaâs brother? And Caytonâs past traps him. Though he strives to become a better man, he is constantly concerned about returning to his old ways and heâs absolutely certain heâs not deserving of someone as good and pure as Lady Ella.Through a scheme to rid both the Staffords and Nottinghams of the cure of the Fire Eyes (red diamonds from India), Ella and Caytonâs time together grows their attractions. While Ellaâs determined to push past pretending, Caytonâs set on keeping both feet firmly planted in the façade.This book is the perfect ending to the trilogy. The adventure of the Fire Eyes keeps the story moving along with intrigue while Cayton and Ellaâs relationship grows around it. A beautifully written Edwardian series, the Ladies of the Manor now have a permanent home on my bookshelf.***Bethany House Publishers and Roseanna M.
