This is one of the best regency romances I have ever read! It is a wonderful story of star crossed lovers with exceptional character development and dialogue, tight writing with no typos, and a good, realistic plot. Five stars all the way!

It is wonderful to be reacquainted with the characters from "A Forthright Courtship" by Fanny Finch. In Ms. Finch's previous book, we met Miss Maria Worthing who is now engaged to Lord Edward Reginald, Duke of Foreshire and they were planning their wedding. Our heroine is Edward's sister, Lady Georgiana Reginald. She is a quiet, unassuming woman whose joy in life is seeing others happy. She considers herself a wallflower and at the age of six and twenty she feels she is on the verge of spinsterhood. Our reluctant hero is Captain Robert Trentworth. He is a man that does his best to think before speaking. He is a man of discipline and principle. But when he is around Lady Georgiana all common sense leaves him and he feels nothing but anger and bitterness. He had been engaged to Georgiana a few years ago only to have his heart broken when she called it off. Her father the late Duke of Foreshire, forbade her from marrying Robert because he had no title or fortune. The Duke threatened Georgiana by telling her he would cut her off financially and socially. She would have been ruined in the eyes of society. But all Robert thought of was himself and his feelings. He had no idea what Georgiana would have suffered by defying her father and marrying him. Shortly thereafter, Robert left for His Majesty's Royal Navy. Present day: Georgiana was helping Maria plan her wedding to Edward. Julia Weston is Georgiana's dearest friend. She sent her a letter inviting Georgiana to visit her for a couple of weeks in Bath. Georgiana checked with Maria and Edward and they were more than amendable to see her go off and enjoy herself. Everything for the wedding was under control. Georgiana had never been to Bath and was excited to see it and to see Julia and her mother, Mrs. Weston. Georgiana reminisced, for it was at the Weston country estate where she would meet Captain Robert Trentworth and where he asked her to marry him. It was also Julia and her mother who had advocated for the match between them. But they unfortunately understood why Georgiana had to let Robert go. It was no light thing for Georgiana. Robert's heart was not the only one breaking. Now In Bath, Georgiana decided to discretely look for an a small place to live in. Perhaps with two or three servants. She would live the remainder of her years in Bath as a spinster. Julia had other plans. Would she succeed? That evening, Julia planned a dinner party. It included five guests. Three gentlemen and two additional ladies. Georgiana never liked a large gathering but decided to soldier through it. When the guests started to arrive, that is when she saw the last person in the world she expected to see, Captain Robert Trentworth. He was also taken by extreme surprise to see her too. Georgiana had no idea he had returned to England. They were polite to each other but Georgiana could sense the anger and bitterness coming from Robert. What was Julia up too? What was she thinking to have invited them both to the same event? Apparently, Robert had risen in rank recently for he acquired a small fortune while in the Navy and an inheritance from his late aunt. The other gentlemen attending the dinner were Mr. Tomlinson and Mr. Norwich. It seems as though Mr. Tomlinson has taken an immediately interest in Georgiana and has the desired to further their acquaintance. Georgiana was still not over Robert. It was difficult to engage in conversation with another man. So, she decided to be her quiet self and listen to the gentlemen. The other ladies that were invited are the young and quite silly Miss Perry and the quick witted, direct and a little bossy Miss Everett. Would Georgiana get on with the ladies? What of the gentlemen. Would she receive the attentions of any of the other men? What of the Captain? Will he and Georgiana ever reconcile their past, forgive and become friends... or more? It was sad to read about what Georgiana and Captain Trentworth had been through. It was frightening what the late Duke, Georgiana's father, had put her through. It was also sad that Georgiana had to be the one to break Robert's heart because she felt duty bound to her father. What is going to happen? Will Georgiana ever find out if Robert missed her as much as she missed him? Will Georgiana break the rules of propriety, take a risk and seek Robert out? What if he rejects her? (I will tell you he unfortunately does reject her) Will she finally be able to put the whole disagreeable mess behind her? Will Robert ever see reason and admit he still loves Georgiana, forgive her and take another chance? If he does see reason, will he be able to admit that he accused her of being a social snob, rejecting him in the past because he had no title or fortune? Would Georgiana be able to forgive herself and forgive him? Will her brother Edward, who is now the Duke, be like his father and reject Robert as his father did? Will Robert take one of the other ladies to wife? What of Mr. Tomlinson? If he proposes to Georgiana will she accept so she will have security and a home? Or will she stay the spinster? (heavy sigh) Will Georgiana settle to marry without love and become a polite companion? If Mr. Tomlinson falls in love with Georgiana, is it fair to him that she does not return his feelings? What a conundrum!! This book is very realistic in the relationships it portrayed. It is easy to relate to the character's moods and emotions. I did find myself sighing a lot reading the story of pain and heartache. I found this to be a wonderful read. I highly recommend it.

A love worth saving? Maybe. A book worth reading? Nope.
Now, I'd like to start off by saying that I rarely give bad ratings. I appreciate the hard work that goes into writing a book. However, having suffered through this novel in its entirety (because of my own stubborn resolve), I believe I am owed this small reprieve.
To start off, a brief summary:
We're introduced to Georgiana, the daughter of a Duke, who is on the brink of 'spinsterhood'. She is in love with a Mr. Trentworth, who returns her feelings and had courted her previously but was sternly rejected by her father due to lack of wealth and a title. Things have changed, her father is now dead and Mr. Trentworth has gained an inheritance, which is where this book kicks off.
I'm a total novice when it comes to Regency Romance. This book came up in my free e-books search and so I downloaded it. That said, I won't waste your time with historical accuracy that I know nothing about. What I will say, however, is that this book was an utter bore. I wanted to like it, I really did but between the constant repitition and self righteous 'I'm above all this but not really' monologues, I just couldn't. You have an impression of someone's character - fine; but do we really need to be reminded of that impression EVERY SINGLE TIME you see or so much as think of that person? I think not.
None of the characters really stood out for me either and I found myself being annoyed with Georgiana and her love interest more than anything else. If this is a prime example of Regency Romance then maybe this genre just isn't for me.

Georgiana and Robert were sneaking around with their relationship hiding it especially from her father that was against her marrying a man beneath her class. Georgiana was in love with Robert and she had no choice but to let him go and it broke Roberts heart. Years later Robert has become a wealthy man and now he is called Captain Trentworth, they meet up again at a ball and all the hurt that Robert was feeling for her comes out when he is overly rude to her. When Robert finds out that Georgiana has been proposed to will he fight for her or will all of the bitterness he holds in destroy them before they even have a chance?. There is still a very deep attraction between the two and Georgiana forgives Robert for the nasty things he says, so will she accept the proposal from a Mr Tomlinson or will she put all of the hurt aside and choose Robert instead?. I loved the extra characters trying to talk some sense into their friends, this is a clean romance it doesn’t need the hard core sex that’s in some books to make it a great story it’s perfect just the way it is. A fantastic read and I highly recommend this book it’s definitely well worth the read.

A Love Worth Saving by Fanny Finch is a continuation of Georgiana's story, so charmingly referenced in the prior book, A Forthright Courtship. With everything well in hand for her brother Edward's wedding to his lady love, Maria, Georgiana takes a holiday in Bath, at the invitation of her friend, Julia Wentworth. Georgiana has all but decided she will be a spinster and possibly retire to bath to live out her days independently. Little does she know that Julia has conspired to reintroduce her to her lost love, Captain Robert Trentworth. The new relationship is fraught with misunderstandings and incorrect assumptions including the courtship and proposal of Georgiana by a Mr. Tomlinson.
Finch does a nice job weaving a story but her material is fraught with inaccuracies regarding the period: some not more that incorrect word choice; some just flat-out wrong. A foray in to research is my recommendation.
A Love Worth Saving is an enjoyable book, quick read, and some interesting characters. It is worth the price and the time.
I was given a free ARC of the book in exchange for a fair and honest review.

This is a continuation of A Forthright Courtship but can be read alone. Georgiana’s dictatorial status is everything father forbade her to marry Robert who had no title or money. So Georgiana broke off her engagement to Robert, who left to enter the navy. Years have passed. Georgiana is invited to spend a few weeks in Bath where she meets Robert again, fresh out of the navy and newly rich. Georgiana confesses that she still loves Robert. Robert scorns her even though he still loves her as he is afraid her brother will not let Georgiana marry him as he has no title. Very good plot and romance. A lot of emotion and tears - a lesson in learning to trust again and to stand up for your convictions no matter what the cost. This was a quick read. There are several characters with stories of their own that I hope we’ll see soon. Great job!

He comes back to London to attend Duke of Foreshire's wedding to Maria Worthing who will be Georgiana's sister- in-Law. A Wonderful Love Story. about Second Chances!!

I enjoyed this story of second chances. Unfortunately, Captain Trentworth should be taken behind the barn and shot. He is so arrogant like he is the only one who has been suffering. Georgiana is the daughter and sister of a duke. Everyone fails to understand why she has not married yet, she is twenty-six. She and Robert Trentworth were engaged a long time ago but her father had forbidden it. They were both broken hearted but she gave in and sent Robert away.
Her father was a cruel and heartless man. The storyline was very good, the characters were developed and very realistic. The descriptions added to the grandeur of the places they went. The author has yet to give me a boring tale. They seem to be well written and keep your interest. I have to admit my favorite scene of all was the end.
I received this ARC from the author and voluntarily read this book.

A historical Regency Period romance that’s Period appropriate and well written whether “clean” or not. That’s certainly proven by Fanny Finch’s A Love Worth Saving (of the “clean sweet romance“ variety). The story of Georgiana Reginald and her Captain Trentworth may be inspired by Jane Austen’s Persuasion, but the slight twist of events incorporated into it, and it’s really wonderful HEA to my mind make this even better than the inspiration (apologies if that’s sacrilege to any reader). I simply adored this novel. But for the fact that I’m literally dictating this review my husband from my hospital bed I could go on and on with praises - the book definitely deserves it. Since I can’t do that I will simply note that the book is most definitely one to read, it is easy to highly recommend.

True Love
This book was a good read. The characters were likable although they had a hard time making a decision. The things I didn’t like were of a historical regency aspect. A woman who is the daughter of a Duke and the sister of a Duke would always be referred to as Lady even when marrying a person of lower status. A Lady would not travel alone under no circumstances. A Lady such as the Duke’s fiancé would not live in the same house with him before marriage. Also, no unmarried Lady would ever been in the company of a gentleman without a chaperone. If they were seen in this regard they would be forced to marry because she would be ruined. These were only a few instances where the author should know what is acceptable when writing of the Regency era.

Much Ado About Nothing.
It could also be referred to as A Comedy of Errors because of Ms Finch's appalling ignorance of the address used towards the aristocracy of the Regency period.
In defence of the book the storyline is interesting and the characters engaging.
Lady Georgiana was definitely misunderstood by Captain Trentworth when she first found herself in a position of having to hurt him. The soul searching done by both characters is very well done! In fact 'All's Well That Ends Well!'
Unfortunately I have to deduct stars for the fact that the research was so poor. Three stars.

Third times a charm
This was a lovely second chance or in this case third chance at love story. The two main characters are well written and I like that both were stubborn and held firm in what they thought was right in their beliefs of the time neither of them wanting to get hurt. I liked Georgiana and Roberts story better than Maria and Edward's but am anticipating her best friend Julia's story. I loved her no holds bar friendship she had with both characters and spoke her mind like a true friend would do. The beginning of the story was a tad bit slow but picked halfway through. I highly recommend this book you won't regret it.

A love worth saving was exactly that. I loved the continuation of a Forthright Courtship. Georgianna had broken her engagement to Robert years ago because her father the Duke forbid it and would have ruined her financially and socially. Robert didn't understand the impact this would have had on her so harbored bitterness but never stopped loving her. Georgianna didn't expect to see him again and at the age of 26,thought herself a confirmed spinster. A trip to Bath, arranged by her best friend Julia led to a surprise encounter with Robert . Both feined interest in the other singles invited to the party but the flying sparks indicated something else, like maybe another chance at love!!

A very sweet and gentile regency romance, the story of Georgiana and Robert and their second chance at love. Years ago they had been in love and secretively engaged but when the time came for her fathers approval he refused stating Robert had neither title or wealth enough for the daughter of a Duke. Robert wanted her to marry him anyway she could not. He went back to the navy she stayed with her family never finding another person either could love. Going to Bath to visit with an old friend they once again meet, being unsure of each others feelings leads misunderstanding and possibly new loves. You must read to find the results of love that has been waiting..

Georgiana and Robert were madly in love when her father refused to give his blessing and threatened to ruin her if she want against his wishes. Robert was furious and went to sea to serve in the Navy! Years later they are reunited and he’s still furious and she’s still madly in love with him. Now with the fathers death will they get back together. I loved this book. I loved Georgiana’s friendship with the Weston’s and how they looked out for her. I loved the scenes at the balls. I loved the romance, conflict and proper etiquette of the regency period. I highly recommend this charming book. With this author you are guaranteed a good read! Looking forward to the next book!

Great characters
What a fun collection of characters. I love reading about individuals with several different personalities and how they are viewing the events of the story. It is always fun when several of them will approach and share their observations with the main characters.
The title is great for this story, as they are constantly thwarted in truly expressing themselves well to each other. Thankfully with the pushing and prodding of friends, they don’t give up. A fun read I was able to finish in one sitting.

I enjoyed this story and you felt for the characters. She loves him -he loved her but her father would not allow it ! Years later they meet again due to friends sneaky way of getting them together. Past feelings are there yet anger and bitterness have deep roots. You really felt for them both and the emotions were wrote out so well There are several times in the book the author repeats things over and over which is annoying but I got over it and I am looking forward to the next installation of this series there are several characters I do hope find their Happily ever after!

Loved this story of two people, who dictated by society and a tyrant for a father, were able to come together after years of being apart to find happiness. Georgianna had to turn Robert down once before as he was not of nobility, now he's made something of himself in the Navy and come into an inheritance. Upon seeing each other again, temper's flare but so do those old feelings. Can they both get past what was said years ago and make it work? Wonderful characters and supporting characters in this story. It was a great follow-up from her previous story. Would highly recommend.
August 11, 2018
I actually enjoyed this story more than I did Jane Austen's "Persuasion". The characters are deeply and emotionally involved and the pain experienced by their past keeps coming back to haunt them. The truth is that neither of these characters can move on with their lives until they can get past the pain and love they still feel for one another. I liked Georgianna, but Captain Trentworth left me cold at points in the story. His personality is not one I can love, but the character was written well with that cold streak a man has when he has walled up his heart.

Great Story! I enjoyed reading this story to see how Georgiana and Captain Trentworth work out the Captain’s well-deserved distrust of Georgiana. There were many misunderstandings to be worked through so I found myself holding my breath wondering how that would happen. At times I wanted to shake Georgiana and tell her to stop being so analytical of everything going on and being said. I think you will enjoy this story as much as I did and highly recommend its purchase.

This is the sequel to A Forthright Courtship, the story of Lady Georgiana and Captain Trentworth. They are given a second chance at love. Will they take it? Or is one or both of them too headstrong? Great secondary characters. I enjoyed Lady Julia and Mr. Tomlinson. The story flowed. Characters were fleshed out. Twists and turns made it interesting. Come along and find out what happens. See if it is still true love after so many years
