Review | Frontier Engagement

amazon Christianbook.com Goodreads
Raised thinking she was a princess, Alexandrina Fosgrave, Rina, has little trust for people or their petty promises. What she wants, what she needs is a job and the ability to depend on herself. It’s awefully hard to get a job teaching with no references and no diploma, though.

When James Wallin appears in Seattle asking for her to take the teaching job at Wallin Landing Rina is very distrustful. Even knowing her friend is married to James’ brother doesn’t do much to ease her concern. But Rina must take chances and trust the Lord if she’s going to overcome her present circumstances.

James hasn’t felt trustworthy since his father died and he uses humor to ease his guilty conscience. There’s just something about Rina, though, that makes him want to be a man she can trust and admire.

Can James forgive himself before he loses Rina to whomever is trying to scare her off?

Hott Review:

Reading, writing and. .. frivolity?
I loved Frontier Engagement! Each Regina Scott book is better than the last.
In Frontier Engagement specifically, I loved Rina and Simon. Rina has a strong personality, she may have been victimized but she’s not a victim. Simon had been living his life in the shadow of guilt. He can’t seem to get past it to forgive himself. Together they make quite a pair especially since neither is able to trust.

Author Bio:

Regina Scott started writing novels in the third grade. Thankfully for literature as we know it, she didn’t actually sell her first novel until she had learned a bit more about writing such as vocabulary, sentence structure, and plot. After numerous short stories and articles in magazines and trade journals, she got serious about her novel writing. The Unflappable Miss Fairchild was her first novel to be published (March 1998).

Besides her novels, Regina Scott has had published three Regency novellas (“The June Bride Conspiracy” in His Blushing Bride, “Sweeter Than Candy” in A Match for Mother, and “A Place by the Fire” in Mistletoe Kittens). Two of her novels, A Dangerous Dalliance and The Twelve Days of Christmas, have been translated into German. A Dangerous Dalliance and The Incomparable Miss Compton have been translated into Italian. Starstruck and Perfection have been translated into Dutch.

Regina Scott and her husband are the parents of two sons. They reside in the Tri-Cities of southeast Washington State and are members of the Church of the Nazarene. Born in 1959 and raised in the Seattle area, Regina Scott is a graduate of the University of Washington. She comes by her writing talent naturally–both her parents are excellent writers in their vocations as teacher and electrical technician. Her mother envisioned the plot for “Sweeter Than Candy,” the novella which was written as a tribute to her.

Regina Scott is a devout Christian and a decent fencer; owns a historical, fantasy, and science fiction costume collection that currently takes up over a third of her large closet; and has been known to impersonate an independent consultant specializing in risk communication.
