Synopsis

She should be reconciling herself to spinsterhood, not falling for the baronet next door. Miss Elaine Brooke has always spent more time daydreaming than actually living. With no fortune and no suitors, she is back from school and determined to face the reality of a quiet, lonely life. But an encounter with Daniel Ashburn, her childhood best friend and lifelong infatuation, sets her dreaming again. Soon she is imagining a very different life as Mrs. Ashburn. Sir Phillip Ashburn has an estate to manage and a troublesome brother to marry off. He won't let a penniless neighbor ruin everything by turning Daniel's head. Intent on keeping Miss Brooke away from his brother, Phillip sets out to monopolize her time. Despite their disagreements, Phillip soon begins to wonder if she is more than a problem to be solved. As Phillip starts to question all his assumptions, Elaine realizes he isn't quite what she imagined. Could she possibly have set her heart on the wrong Ashburn? Jane Austen meets Sabrina in this Regency Romance.

Goodreads review by Sabrina Trejo on June 06, 2022

Going into this book I was completely biased and unsure how a regency could live up to one of my all-time favorite movies, Sabrina. It’s such a classic story and both versions of the movie are great in their own ways, so how did a book, set in a completely different time and country, stand up agains......more

Goodreads review by Emily on July 04, 2024

I read this in a day and half and when I wasn’t reading it I was thinking about the characters and wondering how the story would continue to develop. I stayed up until 3 AM to finish it. That’s probably the highest praise I can give a book considering my children are usually up at 7 AM and now more......more

Goodreads review by Annie | A Bookish on April 23, 2022

"Don't look at me like that. Aren't secret engagements fashionable now?" The Imagined Attachment by Holli Jo Monroe was absolutely delightful from start to finish. This was a book I stayed up way too late reading (much to my husband’s dismay). Do I regret it? No. Will you, when you do it too? Also no......more

But they have both male and female narrators and I love the way it was done! And the story is great! Original Review: If you love the movie Sabrina, and regency, this is the......more
