The Rector's Daughter

Charlotte, daughter of Reverend Percival Hatton, has been content to follow the path laid out for her. Charlotte has an understanding with Captain Nicolas Paget – every inch the gentleman – who she expects someday to marry. But then she meets Josiah Martyn, and everything changes ... A driven and ambitious Cornish mining engineer, and the complete opposite to Captain Nicolas, Josiah has come to London to help build the first tunnel under the river Thames. When unpredictable events occur at the inauguration of the project, Josiah and Charlotte are suddenly thrown into an unexpected intimacy. But not everyone is happy with Charlotte and Josiah growing closer. As friends turn to foes, will they be able to rewrite the stars and find their happy ever after, although all odds seem to be stacked against them?©2019 Jean Fullerton (P)2019 Bolinda Publishing

An enjoyable read

this book is full of action from the get go the story moved quickly and I like how the author wraps up any drama nicely
Charlotte is a kind hearted young lady who's in love with the handsome Joshia and he with her they have a lovely relationship but everybody is not happy about it Charlotte father is the worst he has not a charitable bone in his body like most people in high positions they pretend to help the poor to look good, Joshia acts a little immature sometimes I was very displeased with him to let mrs Palmer touch him like that apart from the many mistakes they both make it was a wonderful read I gave it 4 stars because of no epilogue the narrator did good job
