Captivating! It’s a mix of the classics like Jane Austen and Charlotte Bronte and t.v. series Downton Abbey. This historical romance is full of drama and suspense with witty and entertaining characters!
A simply delightful must-read!

“I have found that those who try to shield us from the truth, regardless of the reason, end up doing the greatest harm. Truth alone sets you free, not lies and omissions.”

“Few value just how fragile a person’s psyche is. All those pieces, both the good and bad, the values, the lessons, the beliefs that construct us—they’re all woven into the fabric of our being. Once you start pulling out the first thread, the entire person is in danger of unravelling.”

― Jessica Dotta, Born of Persuasion

I’m really enjoying this trilogy! I was immediately hooked and found myself feeling quite torn between Mr. Macy and Lord Dalry. I love both characters! I’m very intrigued about Julia’s past and excited to put all the pieces together in book three!
I will say I didn’t love the ending. It felt rushed.

“When tempers flare, people are always far more interested in expressing their hurt than in seeking solutions.”

😮WOW! I'm speechless....seriously the conclusion of Price of Privilege is so, so good! I could not put this book down! There were so many shocking twists and turns that I didn't see coming. I can't say enough about this Trilogy. It is definitely one of my favorites. I'm sad to say goodbye to these characters. Issac stole my heart. 😔
I am looking forward to reading more of her work in the future.

Favorite Quotes:

“How does one bear the ache that accompanies seeing the goodness resting in the soul of someone who denies you love because they see only your shortcomings?”

“Each one of us is either building his own kingdom or God's Kingdom on earth. Which of those two realities do you suppose we're in as we sit here, putting on airs, congratulating ourselves on having figured out life to our advantages, amassing our comforts for the sole benefit of our families? While outside our doorstep people are desperate for food. Desperate to know their existence matters. Desperate for us to give them acceptance.”

― Jessica Dotta, Price of Privilege
