In 1902, Abigail Dupree was but a breath away from her grand societal failure.

To save her family from humiliation and financial ruin, Abigail becomes a bargaining trade in her mother’s eyes. A bargain that will extinguish Abigail’s last hope of a happily-ever-after. If only she could return to the mountains of Asheville, North Carolina, she might have a chance to reunite with the only man who has the power to save her reputation.

Garrett Barringer arrives in Charlotte, North Carolina to escape a past that no longer wants him. He takes an undisclosed position with Mr. Dupree. When it is revealed that part of Mr. Dupree’s purpose for bringing him on board is to chaperone his beloved daughter, Garrett abruptly discovers that he has taken on more than he bargained for. Abigail Dupree is more beguiling than any other woman he’s encountered, but he must resist his heart for the sake of propriety and to keep a promise made to her father.

When her father hires Garrett Barringer, a man who seems far too young to be a lawyer, and possesses far too many favorable characteristics, Abigail resists his charm but cannot deny her heart is compelling her toward him. But she will not allow the man to ruin an opportunity she has waited for nearly five years.

Garrett is suddenly aware of what his life was and what it could become in the presence of Abigail Dupree.

Will he be able to give up the woman who has stolen his heart, for her happiness?

Abigail stands to lose all if Garrett Barringer sees past her physical beauty and uncovers the ugliness of her imperfect past. Will Abigail continue on the condemned path she’s fashioned for herself, or trust that God wants a future for her she never believed possible?

My Thoughts on An Unlikely Arrangement

An Unlikely Arrangement is such a fun historical fiction novel that was sweet and easy to read. I enjoyed every word of it.  The characters really seemed to pop off the pages and come to life before me.  I loved our two main characters.  

Both of the main characters have things in their past that they regret.  And they have plans for their future.  Plans that don’t involve them being drawn to each other, let alone falling in love.  Plus of course, there’s the fact that Garrett works for Abigail’s father.  And that Abigail is supposed to save her family and their reputation by marrying well. 

The book moved along at a good pace.  The writing was clear and drew me in.  It’s a Christian novel and you’ll be able to tell that.  I really enjoyed the way the plot moved along.  No big suspense or mysteries.  Just a gentle romance and some run history thrown in.
