A Cornish Betrothal by Nicola Pryce is an historical romance/saga set in eighteenth century Cornwall. The main character Amelia faces a difficult decision, choosing between the two men she loves. At it's core it sounds like a classic romantic novel, but there is also a mystery woven into the story which adds extra depth and interest to the book. I haven't previously read any books by Nicola Pryce, and this is the fifth novel in the series. Despite that, I didn't find it was too difficult to become invested in the storyline and the characters - there were no details missing about previous events so nothing was hard to follow or understand, I could pick right up with this book. I found the characters themselves to be relatable, and the book was written beautifully, keeping my attention right to the end. I felt that the book also gave a real insight into what life was like during this time.
