"As we seek the Lord's help and in His strength, we can gradually reduce the disparity between what we say and what we do, between expressing love and consistently showing it, and between bearing testimony and steadfastly living it. We can become more diligent and concerned at home as we are more faithful in learning, living, and loving the restored gospel of Jesus Christ." David A. Bednar

An Elegant Facade Book Review
Colin McCrae lives the life on the edge of society. His life is about business and strives to prove himself worth knowing even if he is beneath society. His friendships with the Duke of Marshington and the Duke of Riverton keep his normal sane life in constant upheaval. He is thrown into helping his best friend the Duke of Marshington win love. Through it all, he is drawn to the Duke of Riverton's youngest sister who seems a spoiled calculating girl. As he delves deeper, he observes a fragile heart trying to protect a great secret.
Lady Georgina Hawthorne has a purpose and that is to find the most advantageous match. She will do everything she can to find the man who will marry her by the end of her first season. She has planned and prepared for it for years. She must do this so that she will be protected once her secret is known.
I read the previous novella, Lady of Esteem and book, A Noble Masquerade which I loved. An Elegant Facade continues the story in the Noble Masquerade but you see more of Colin's side of being pulled in to help the Duke of Marshington. You also see his first impressions of Georgina which I have to say I was in agreement with from reading about her in A Noble Masquerade. I was astonished at how she became more real by the end of An Elegant Facade. I loved the barbs that went between Colin and her through the story. The end made me smile. Can I just say that Colin was just wonderful? All the men in these stories are fun to read about. I hope that we get to read about the Duke of Riverton and Lord Trent finding love. These books are definitely going in my favorites.
I received a complimentary copy of from Bethany House Publishers on Net Galley for my honest opinion and review.
