I’ll admit that for the first couple of chapters I was wondering if I’d like the heroine and enjoy the story, but it quickly grew on me. Amy was realistically flawed--a bit brash, outspoken, and perhaps a little socially inept, so she came across as a bit unlikable at first. I enjoyed seeing her mellow and mature a bit and gain a few social graces. William is finally feeling some freedom when his oppressive grandfather passes away, and he’s looking forward to making some changes and being in charge of his own life and property. It was fun to see their relationship develop and progress. The witty banter and plot twists added much to the tale. “This was silly of her to feel so disheartened. She’d liked the gentleman for what, a quarter of an hour?” Deborah Hathaway is a talented author, and this story is a wonderful addition to her growing list of books. I’m looking forward to more of her writing. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book. All opinions are my own. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Beautifully and eloquently written by the immensely talented Deborah M. Hathaway, this novel transports you to Coniston, an enchanting village that is bursting with beauty and charm that it makes me wish I could really go and experience this region for real.
It's stories like these that make you just adore amour. I saw a lot of myself and the early moments of my relationship with my husband reflected in this read. Maybe that's why I feel so head over heels in love with it! Amy and William are such wonderful characters, their chemistry magnetic. The scenes with them together left me with goofy grins on my face, especially when they challenge each other to a game of shuttlecock, the banter between them was absolutely charming! The ending is swoon-worthy, the happiest of endings, and is immensely satisfying.
To say I enjoyed The Cottage by Conistion is an understatement. This novel is beautifully written with such heart, it captures the imagination, is the perfect escape and is hands down a MUST READ of 2021 for me.
