12/2025 - readers' favorite reviewed the wayfaring widow

A special thank you to Jennifer Senick from Readers' Favorite for your 5-star review of The Wayfaring Widow!

 

"Once I began reading, I was hooked. Its gentle pace made the romance feel like a slow burn that earns every step forward.

...

Victoria’s emotional evolution, seeing herself as more than her scars, really stayed with me. At the same time, Harrison’s mix of weariness, stubbornness, and quiet devotion made their connection feel believable and sweet. Overall, it’s the sort of romance I highly recommend to those with an interest in history."
