Holding the Line

By Jennifer Delamere

Book Overview

A widow at just 30 years of age, Rose Finlay is determined to put all ideas of marriage and family behind her and pursue an independent life. But when she notices a young woman about to be led astray by a roguish aristocrat, bitter memories from her past arise, and she feels compelled to intervene. The unintended consequences of her efforts will ultimately force Rose to reexamine her life in a new light.

As the overseer of his two widowed sisters' financial and domestic affairs, John Milburn carries heavy responsibilities for a single man. But he's faced with his biggest challenge when his headstrong niece falls prey to the attentions of a powerful man who could ruin both her and her family.

When Rose and John join forces to protect his niece, they put everything they hold dear--including their growing attraction--in jeopardy.

Customer Reviews

Loved this book! 😍

“Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?” Jeremiah 33:27 This verse is mentioned in the book, and fits perfectly with the story. I absolutely LOVED this book! This is another new author for me, and she has an exquisite writing style that made this book so easy and fun to read that I nearly inhaled it! The no-nonsense main character and British postal worker Rose Finlay was funny and loveable from the first page. I liked how she dearly loved books (like myself) and how selflessly she cared for others around her. I can't wait to go back and read the first and second books in this "Love Along The Lines" series that I actually wasn't even aware of!  I would definitely recommend this book to anyone as it is squeaky clean, funny, and had important life lessons woven in the story. I received this as a complimentary e-book from Bethany House Publishers and the author through Netgalley. A positive review was not required of me, and the thoughts above are my own.
