My Review 

4☆ An Endearing, Light hearted Mystery Romance.

The Manor on the Moors is a charming read with a good dash of history, mystery, romance and fun. It's a story of discovery, finding friendship, potential romances and quirky characters.

The story is mainly centered around Alice and Caroline.
Caroline, her daughter Emily, her father Sir Henry Lattimore and eccentric Aunt Marjorie (who I adored, she's cheeky and quirky, and a lil naughty) all live in Misterley Manor.
Misterley Manor is steeped in history and gorgeous architecture and art.

Alice comes to Misterley Manor to help finish her PHD.
She is studying Gilbert Fox-Travers, architect and artist and his life among Misterley Manor.
Alice has always been fascinated by Travers, and when Caroline's family solicitors finally release 100year old documents from Travers she can't resist and begs Caroline to let her study there.

But Travers is no longer alive and he disappeared mysteriously and she is determined to find out what happened to him!

Misterley Manor is in danger, it needs alot of renovating and TLC, but with her Father's ill health and strong willed nature Caroline finds her hands are tied and at risk of them losing everything.

Can Caroline and Alice come together to turn things around and save Misterley Manor, and solve the mystery of Travers disappearance?
Will Alice and the sexy gardener Tom ever get together?

I really liked Caroline and Alice's budding friendship. At first Caroline comes across as cold and aloof, but as the story progresses we find out more about her, I really warmed to her softer side.
Her Ex hubby isn't very nice and he seems to be very petty and childish when trying to use their daughter against Caroline.
He is also livid that Caroline and her father refuse to let him be privy to Travers letters.

Alice is somewhat shy yet endearing. She has a huge heart, and seeing her grow in confidence from being around Caroline, Emily and Marjorie is so heart warming.

The Manor on the Moors is a Heartwarming and Endearing read.
I really enjoyed the underlying mystery that ran throughout the story.
There was some romance but it didn't play a huge part, which was nice. It was more the case of will they or won't they.
The Characters are quirky, a lil eccentric, You just can't help warming to them.
The pace is a lil slower as the story builds it's layers and lil twists are uncovered.

The Manor on the Moors is a warm and lighthearted read, that was fun and made me giggle which is always a winner.
I'm intrigued to see if there will be more, maybe a series?
Overall a Compelling Read, with a gorgeous cover.

Author Bio 




Liz has always surrounded herself with books.
As a child, she was always to be found with her head in one and she still has a bookcase full of her childhood favourites to this day. (As a thirteen-year-old she read The Lord of the Rings twelve times in a row, cover to cover!) All this reading led, unsurprisingly, to a degree in English Literature, (and another book-case full of books) and then a job as a cataloguer of early printed books for a major university library. This meant spending hours sitting in a beautiful, ancient building looking at antique leather-bound tomes – although as so many of them turned out to be rather boring volumes of sermons she wasn’t tempted to read them! She went on to train others to catalogue books and her earliest attempts at writing anything as an adult consisted of instructions on how to work out the correct form of an author’s name to use in a library catalogue.
Children (and then cats and chickens) interrupted her bibliographic career, and having given up library work Liz found herself doing more reading, and increasingly she found herself enjoying novels by writers like Trisha Ashley, Katie Fforde, Milly Johnson and Lucy Diamond. Inspired by their example, she started writing fiction and hasn’t stopped since, joining the Romantic Novelists’ Association’s wonderful New Writers’ Scheme to try to learn how to write novels properly in 2015.  She has also attempted writing some short stories, with one The Second Princess winning a competition in Writing Magazine which led her to think that maybe publication wasn’t a pipe dream after all.
Liz owes everything to her tolerant and long-suffering husband Ben and her tolerant and long-suffering children, but very little to the cats who are neither tolerant nor long-suffering and keep sitting on the computer keyboard and messing up her manuscript if she forgets to feed them on time.
When not reading or writing Liz is often to be found on stage (or behind it) with her local amateur dramatic society, drinking tea, or visiting one of the several North Yorkshire seaside villages which were the inspiration for the fictional Rawscar, the setting for her debut novel The Little Church by the Sea.
