It's good luck to bring the forest indoors, to let it watch over you while you sleep. They bring me good dreams.

Oh I loved this. Unique premise with Amelia risking her name and fortune by promising to raise her dying friend‘s infant child, then proposing to the child‘s father in order to give the child the best life. There is a romance but it seems to take a backseat to the main conflict, which is totally fine with me. I feel like this author was definitely inspired by Jane Austen, so perhaps fans of Austen and inspirational historical fiction will enjoy.
“...trying not to stare at the captain, who was seated directly across from her. She was grateful that etiquette forbade her from speaking across the table during dinner. At least she would be able to avoid conversation for now.”
THEY COULDN‘T SPEAK ACROSS THE TABLE IN REGENCY ENGLAND? How did I not know this? 🤷🏻♀️ Or did I know it and just completely forget it?!?
I‘ve been craving some Regency-era historical fiction, and this cover and premise called out to me. #currentlyreading
