This is a well-written and intriguing story of a young lady in 19th century England whose father has died and the man her mother remarried to is an unscrupulous gold digger. When he learns that Margaret, rather than her mother is set to inherit a large amount on her 25th birthday, he schemes to have his nephew marry Margaret. When she finds out how far he will stoop to have his way, she flees the house in fear and winds up becoming a maid at Fairbourne hall, the home of two of her former suitors, one brother who she rejected for his older brother, who then rejected her. As she works, disgusised with a wig and make-up, she learns the truth about the brothers and finds out what it is like to work for a living. Filled with suspense and some romance, this is a nice story to read. I received this book free to review from Litfuse.

I just finished reading The Maid of Fairbourne Hall and it was a fantastic book. It is another "can't put down" book and one I really hated to come to an end. Julie is a master storyteller and researcher. I won't start one of her books unless I have extra time to read because I can't put them down and don't get anything else done in my house or yard. I will be patiently waiting for the next one!! Thanks for such wonderful reading!
