Fiction Friday: A Rumored Fortune

Welcome to Trevelyan Castle, home of the poorest heiress in Victorian England.

I can count my all-time absolute favorite authors on one hand. Joanna Davidson Politano is one of them. And I came to that conclusion after only reading one book (Lady Jayne Disappears, if you must know).

So when I saw that her next book comes out at the end of this month, I whoop-de-doodled then signed myself up for an advance copy. And trust me, the mailman is sick to death of me stalking him around the block, clinging to his back, sobbing until he delivers A Rumored Fortune. Here's a blurb:

Tressa Harlowe's father did not trust banks, but neither did he trust his greedy extended family. He kept his vast fortune hidden somewhere on his estate in the south of England and died suddenly, without telling anyone where he had concealed it. Tressa and her ailing mother are left with a mansion and an immense vineyard and no money to run it. It doesn't take long for a bevy of opportunists to flock to the estate under the guise of offering condolences. Tressa knows what they're really up to. She'll have to work with the rough and rusticated vineyard manager to keep the laborers content without pay and discover the key to finding her father's fortune--before someone else finds it first. 

Awesome, eh? Yep. Hop on over to Amazon and snatch up your copy!
