Forget Me Not (The Gents Book #1) by Sarah M. Eden
I really enjoyed this easy to read, historical romance. The characters were great, story line was interesting and kept my interest from beginning to end. I did find myself annoyed at Julia alot because I felt like she was overly clingy and had too high expectations for Lucas with wanting him to be around all the time. She did have alot of loss in her life which is why she acted that way. I liked Lucas better even though he seemed clueless to Julia’s needs and her desire for his time and attention.
Lucas’s friends “The Gents” were the best part of this book! I loved all their different personalities and nicknames! I loved their friendship, camaraderie, and determination to help Lucas succeed in his marriage-now those are good friends!
Lots of laughs-really enjoyed it! I can’t wait to read more about “The Gents” in future books!
I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.

But the loss that pushed her grief to the limit as a young girl was that of her best friend, Lucas Jonquil, who abandoned her without looking back. Now, eight years later, Lucas has returned to Lampton Park, and Julia has steeled herself-she will never forgive the man who broke her heart.
After losing too many of his friends and family to early deaths, Lucas vowed to live life to the fullest. And after traversing the world, he has returned from his adventures to find his family and home as he left them-except for Julia. The little girl he left behind has blossomed into a captivating lady, a lady who makes it clear she despises him. With little hope of reconciliation, the former friends are blindsided when their parents make a shocking announcement. Lucas and Julia have been betrothed without their knowledge and are to marry immediately. Now Lucas must rely on the help of his closest friends to win the heart of a lady who loathes him-a lady he s coming to love more deeply every day.
