Really enjoyed reading Sarah's Choice.Sarah comes from a privileged back ground but doesn't really act like she does and often does things that her mother and father don't like.I would like to think that there was another book to come about Sarah.Thank you to Boldwoo d and Netgalley for letting me read and review this book.

What fabulous characters Sarah Trenwith and Troy Pelham are! I absolutely loved them and thought that Sarah was so brave and is portrayed as a strong but compassionate woman. Even though she has always lived in the shadow of her sister Marianne she never lets it stop her from knowing her place or causing a fuss. She has even hidden how she really feels about Troy Pelham who is determined to do his bit and join the army. Will he survive and be able to make a life with his one true love Sarah? This is an easy to read historical romance that explores not only the main characters relationship but also those around them. Rosie Clarke had very obviously done some research on many aspects of life in that time in history. Thank you to Netgalley and Boldwood books for the ARC

Thanks to the Publisher and Netgalley for an early review copy.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book., set in 1913, Hampshire, with the First Word War looming and the influential High Society

The story is about Sarah, the daughter of a family that’s often overshadowed by her sister Marianne.

As war isn’t far off, she must leave what’s been told to do by her family to go after the love she's always wanted.

The story was well written and kept you hooked, taking you to the period when there was restraints put on people as well as challenges that war brought.

I highly recommend this book.

This was a little different to previous books I had read by Rosie Clarke, but, once I'd got used to it, I loved the story. I enjoyed the characters, particularly Sarah and Troy, and, although I think this is a standalone book, I'd be interested to know what happens to them in the future!

Sarah's Choice" by Rosie Clarke is a historical romance novel set in Hampshire in 1913, against the backdrop of England's High Society and the impending First World War. The story revolves around Sarah Trenwith, a seemingly overlooked wallflower in her family, overshadowed by her beautiful sister Marianne. The narrative takes a turn as the war approaches, and Sarah must step out of the role assigned to her by society and her family in order to pursue the love she's always yearned for.

I was easily able to connect with Sarah and understand her determination to do whatever it takes for her beloved.

Rosie Clarke's "Sarah's Choice" appears to be a well-researched and engaging historical romance that transports readers to a time of societal constraints and wartime challenges. While it has a slow start and some narrative complexity, the book is a recommended read, especially for those interested in the historical context and the resilient character of Sarah.

Disappointing with several errors/gaps in the storyline interspersed with predictable content. The book jumped about and left many unanswered questions. It had the bones to be a good book but the errors in the plot were frustrating.
