Unkept Promises
on Sep. 27, 2019
The golden pen of Jude Knight, author of the Golden Redepennings Series has penned a golden prize for readers. Begun with an unusual premise (seven years between the wedding and the wedding night), Unkept Promises is rich in historical detail and heavy (as real gold is) with suspense. Ms. Knight’s story shines bright with emotion and the true luster of love. If you have read her previous Redepenning books, you’ll know that Ms. Knight makes no promises she does not keep. If you have not experienced her other Redepenning stories (and there are many), Unkept Promises is an excellent place to start. 5 stars.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
