A Matter of Character by Robin Lee Hatcher Blog tour and Giveaway

A Matter of Robin Lee Hatcher

Isn't this Cover Great. I have seen the covers for the other books in the series and thought that they looked fun so I jumped at the chance to reveiw this book.

From Goodreads: In A Matter of Character, by award-winning author Robin Lee Hatcher, the year is 1918 and writing gritty dime novels simply isn't done by a woman. So Daphne McKinley---smart, pretty, talented---publishes her rough-and-tumble books under a male pseudonym. But when a newspaperman enlists her aid in restoring his grandfather's good name, Daphne finds herself re-examining the power of her words and reconsidering the direction of her life.

My Take: I really enjoyed this book. I liked all the Characters especially Daphne. I think that the basis of the book is a good one. Even if it is fiction, words either written or spoken are powerful things that can hurt people and their reputations.

This book was kind of like having two in one because there were two distinct parts. The first part about the suspense of the writer of the dime novels and the second about what would happen between Daphne and Joshua.

This book is part of a series but it definately can stand on it's own .

I read this as a blog tour. Here is a list of the other blogs participating:
