At the end of her third season, Miss Sophia Gifford is firmly on the shelf. She’s determined to accept her current suitor—a man she likes but cannot love.

When her sister decides to throw an impromptu summer house party, Sophia reluctantly agrees to help. What she doesn’t realize is that her sister has plans of her own—plans that would bring a certain childhood friend back into Sophia’s life.

It’s been nearly a decade since Sophia has seen Hugh Quinton. He’s grown into a handsome, charming, and successful—yet completely unacceptable—tradesman. Her mother looks down on him, her father detests him, and society would snub him in an instant. Sophia shouldn’t even consider him. But her heart won’t listen to reason, and before long, she finds herself wondering how much she is willing to sacrifice for love.
 
My Review: 5 Stars
 
I wish I could live in this cover...and in the pages behind it. I love everything about this cover and I'm so happy that it's a perfect match for the story within.
 
House parties are so fascinating to me and I adore that we get glimpses of characters from past books in this story. I have a penchant for protagonists who have imperfections and that's just what is delivered in this offering. 
 
Sophia is fiercely stalwart in her decisions...and she has red hair, freckles, and hates to wear hats, which leads to sunburns. She's also quite hilarious in her nicknames for the match her mother is trying to force. Hugh is charming and smart, but isn't a who's-who in society, although he makes the best of his situation and has worked hard to get to where he is in life. Although this couple encounters many snags in their interactions at this house party, every moment together is extremely endearing and pleasing.
 
This book brought smiles to my face and allowed me the most heavenly escape. The Solicitor's Son is delectable from cover to cover and I'm still standing by my thought that Rachael Anderson is an auto-read author every time.
