I present to you a guest review of SAVING MISS EVERLY, an Inglewood novel by Sally Britton, published November 3, 2019.
Blurb for SAVING MISS EVERLY:
Pretending
she's her twin gets complicated when Hope is shipwrecked with a handsome
castaway. When rescue comes, will she risk her heart to confess the truth or
will they part forever?
Pretending
to be her sister, Hope Everly finds an adventure at last. The Caribbean's warm
waters and tropical islands fulfill nearly all her dreams. When an excursion to
visit another island with a naturalist expedition is interrupted by a storm,
Hope is stranded on a desert island where she and her fellow castaways are dependent
on a handsome stranger for their survival.
Alejandro
Córdoba, trapped and alone on the island long enough to give up all dreams of
rescue, knows nothing of what has become of his war-torn homeland or his
family. When he finds the beautiful Miss Everly washed up on the shore, along
with her companions, he does not know if their arrival is a blessing or a
curse.
Hope's
behavior, acting one way with Alejandro and another with her friends, further
confuses things when they begin to fall in love. If rescue ever comes, will
telling Alejandro the truth mean losing him forever?
This is the third book
in the Inglewood series and can be read as a stand alone. A Sweet Regency
Romance.

Review:
Hope Everly and her friend, Miss Irene Carlbury,
are traveling with Irene’s parents and brother to London where they will board
a ship to sail to the Caribbean. Hope is to act as companion to Irene during
the journey. However, Hope is actually Grace impersonating her twin sister
Hope. It turns out that Grace’s father had forbade her to take the trip because
she had recklessly caused a carriage accident. Her father said that Hope may go
instead. Hope is a homebody and does not want to travel but Grace wants so much
to do so. Therefore, the sisters dream up this switch. Grace hopes she is able
to sail before her father finds out the truth. One deterrent of the trip is
that Irene’s odious brother appears to be determined to propose to “Hope”
during the trip.
Hope and a group of people get on a boat to head to an island to check out the plants. But a storm comes up and Hope is washed overboard.
Alejandro is on a deserted island and using his wits to stay alive. When Hope washes ashore, he is happy to save her and help her adjust to life on the island. But soon, the rest of the people on the boat with Hope arrive and Alejandro is faced with finding a way to feed them and cater to their arrogant ways. Many of them remain helpless but Hope is eager to learn which gains Alejandro’s admiration. However, many of the others still think they are bound by the laws of society and just cannot grasp that they have to work to feed themselves.
Before long Hope and Alejandro find themselves attracted to one another, but there is always the odious brother of Irene who thinks Hope belongs to him. Will these people survive and will they be rescued?
A very interesting and intricately written story of survival on a deserted island and all that is involved in finding food and shelter. As always, Sally Britton writes a delightful and compelling novel.
I received a free review copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
