The Red Cottage by Hannah Linder (Author) is a book I found on NetGalley I was able to read for free.
I fell in love with the title of the book before I even read about The Red Cottage. What drew me in was the Love Story and the idea of a Cottage with a red door. I didn’t expect romance, mystery and suspense all rolled into one book.
At times the story was sad because the man she loved was lost at Sea. Then there is a Lord which all women would want. I didn’t like the Uncle or the gossip but that is something we all deal with in real life just like the main character had to do.
I hated learning her Uncle’s shop was lost to a fire but that kept me on the edge of my seat waiting to see what would happen. If you like Mysterious/ Romantic Dramas you should check out The Red Cottage as well as other books by Hannah Linder.
Description
She forgot she loved him.
He would die to make her remember.
Meg Foxcroft has never minded the tattling village gossip or her uncle’s ill-tempered rebukes. After all, she has Tom McGwen—and one day, they will build their own cottage, paint it red, and live a wonderful life.
But then the unthinkable happens. Meg is attacked, her uncle’s apothecary shop goes up in flames, and when she wakes up in the arms of an eloquent lord, she remembers nothing. Not even her own name.
In a frantic race against time, Tom plunges into dangerous water, bent on sheltering Meg from harm and discovering who wants her dead. Even if she despises him. Even if it’s now the handsome lord she casts her smile upon.
As danger swells and truth comes crashing around them, Meg must confront the past and decide who she trusts—and loves—before the enemy makes the final strike.
