Here’s what Tangled Promises is all about:
Thunderous applause extinguishes her dream and ignites her worst nightmare.
Clara Reinhold’s father publicly pledges her hand to Georg Wolff. His character and arrogance match the stench of his odious cigars, but his lineage offers a suitable alliance for the station of a baron’s daughter.
A charades clue years earlier turned friendship into a promise of forbidden marriage between Clara and family carriage driver, Daniel Becker.
If she refuses Georg and follows her heart, her father disowns her and she loses everything – her loving family, dear friends, and the only home she’s known.
As a tangled web of scandal and deceit unwinds, hidden motives and illicit activities emerge among an unsuspecting ring of players changing everything but nobility’s rules.
How will justice be served?
How will Clara and Daniel overcome obstacles to claim a future beyond that of a charade?
Here’s what reviewers have said about Tangled Promises:
This is a true melodrama in the very best sense of the word! Entertaining throughout. The heroine’s plight moves you and the villain’s dastardly ways keep you booing and hissing (and guessing!) The rich historical details are evocative of the time, and make this a delightful trip to 19th Century Germany.
~Jennifer Mistmorgan, Author of Heart in the Clouds, a Selah awards finalist in both debut novel category and historical romance category.
Lynn U. Watson’s debut novel is a delightful story that takes us to 19th century Germany, a time when being the daughter of German nobility often meant marrying a man chosen by her parents. The setting was refreshing and captivating, and the plot kept me turning pages as I cheered for Clara in her struggle to do what is best. Tangled Promises checks all the boxes for anyone who enjoys historical romance novels.
~Michelle Shocklee, A 2023 Christianity Today Book of the Year Award-winner for Count the Stars by Night
Tangled Promises captivated me from the first pages and kept me reading past two a.m. to discover how Clara would overcome her father’s disastrous decision. Watson’s knowledge of the times and mores of when nobility ruled in Germany was excellent.
