Acerca de esta escucha
With quills and fantasies, they write their future.
Percival Randall lives an uncomplicated life of luxury, as he likes it. Not even an ultimatum requiring marriage can tip the scales. A conniving young lady who compromises his name to force a betrothal, however, is an impediment to happiness Percival must confront.
Abigail Walsley dreams of publishing novels rather than marrying dashing heroes. An unexpected proposal and a subsequent Banbury tale tumble her into a betrothal with a man she has never met. Following her dreams proves a challenge with a marriage of inconvenience on the horizon.
This is the love story of Percival and Abigail, two dreamers who write their love story one scene at a time.
From second chance romances to mistaken identities, experience a dash of romance in this collection of one short novel and 14 bonus flash fiction pieces.

Lady Sophronia Bremerton is a far cry from the typical debutante, but she’s the toast of London’s upper class for one simple reason: she’s a society columnist for the London Illustrated News, and the gentry loves seeing their exploits printed in the gossip pages. But Sophie has bigger plans - she aspires to be an investigative reporter. When a stuffy ballroom during yet another Season proves to be nothing more than the usual rumor mill, Sophie seeks respite in the library, alongside four other young women who, for their own reasons, are also looking for escape.

Elena MacKinnon has spent the last seven years training to become a proper English lady. When her childhood friend, Captain Theo Donovan, returns from serving in the Navy, he brings along with him Elena’s humiliation for the ill-advised and ardent love letter she wrote him before his departure, which he ignored entirely. Elena hopes to simultaneously stifle his memory of the letter and make him regret overlooking her, showing him just how fine an English lady she can be. The only problem? She is not English but a proud Scot—and her heart may be more enamored with Theo than ever.

Louisa Cox is tired of fortune hunters pursuing her dowry. So when Lady Kellen offers to help her find an eligible suitor, Louisa accepts and makes a list of what she wants in a husband. The man selected is barrister Paul Sheldon. He has one thing in his favor: he is unaware of her fortune. What Louisa did not anticipate was his curious behavior—or being so attracted to him. When Paul catches wind of the matchmaking organization his mother and her friends are establishing, he pities the fellow who will be caught in their scheme—until he realizes he is to be their first victim.

Hidden away in rural Devonshire, Phyllida Satterthwaite has always been considered more odd than beautiful. But in London, her oddity has made her a sensation. Far worse, it’s caught the eye of the sinister Duke of Moreland - a notorious art collector obsessed with acquiring one-of-a-kind treasures. To escape the duke’s clutches, she’s going to need a little help. Captain Arthur Heywood’s days of heroism are long past. Grievously injured in the Peninsular War, he can no longer walk unaided, let alone shoot a pistol. What use can he possibly be to a damsel in distress?

As a young woman, Leah Penn-Leith fell hopelessly in love with Captain Fox Carnegie—the only irrational mark on her decidedly sensible life. Fox, unfortunately, did not return her regard. Their story should have ended there—Fox left for India and Leah returned home to Scotland to rear her much younger brothers. Twenty years later, Fox appears on Leah's doorstep—older, scarred, and world-weary—proposing a marriage of convenience between them.

An unexpected gem!
Story Review:
I’m not a huge fan of historical romance novels or historical fiction at all, unless I’m watching it. But A Dash of Romance was fulfilling and just the cutest story. From the first chapter, I was thinking, “hmm this is different, okay let’s see where this goes.” and was hooked by the third chapter. Percy and Abbie have such a great story to tell and I loved that it was kind of meta with Abbie being a romance writer.
It was also nice to experience a female character from that time who wanted her independence but wasn’t fully sure about it, all at the same time. Percy being the rich kid who had to make a choice whether to keep his money or not, had an interesting take on his choices.
This whole thing could easily be made into a movie and I’d watch it! The only thing that drove me crazy had nothing to do with the writing, but part of the personality of one of the characters. There’s a running thought of self worth all throughout the story. Interestingly it’s happening with both lead characters and their journeys are beautiful.
This is the perfect summation of this novel: “With quills and fantasies, they write their future.”- Paullett Golden
If you love a true romance novel with a dash of fairy tale, I’d highly recommend you read this book! I think I may have been converted to a historical romance reader. 😊💜
Narration Review:
Bridget Thomas's narration gave a whole new perspective to the story. As I read, I was hearing the characters with one accent and when I listened, it became another. This made it much better and I really enjoyed it! Thank you for the great narration!
