Holding the Fort by Regina Jennings

Holding the Fort (The Fort Reno Series Book #1) by [Jennings, Regina]

Here is the book summary:
Jennings Winningly Combines Humor, History, and Romance

Louisa Bell never wanted to be a dance-hall singer, but dire circumstances force her hand. With a little help from her brother in the cavalry, she's able to make ends meet, but lately he's run afoul of his commanding officer, so she undertakes a visit to straighten him out. 

Major Daniel Adams has his hands full at Fort Reno. He can barely control his rowdy troops, much less his two adolescent daughters. If Daniel doesn't find someone respectable to guide his children, his mother-in-law insists she'll take them.

When Louisa arrives with some reading materials, she's mistaken for the governess who never appeared. Major Adams is skeptical. She bears little resemblance to his idea of a governess--they're not supposed to be so blamed pretty--but he's left without recourse. His mother-in-law must be satisfied, which leaves him turning a blind eye to his unconventional governess's methods. Louisa's never faced so important a performance. Can she keep her act together long enough?

And now, my review:
Holding the Fort by Regina Jennings was a pleasant and delightful read!  It had action, a great plot, romance, and it had twists and turns that kept me reading.  It was funny sometimes and intense other times.  The redemption of this brother and sister was inspiring!  We can’t always control our upbringing but it doesn’t have to define who we CAN be for the future.  There can be value, purpose, and love found in the unexpected places.  Another great one by Regina Jennings!

I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
