Wildthorn by Jane Eagland
Hardcover, 350 pages
Published September 6th 2010 by Houghton Mifflin Books for Children
Goodreads|Amazon

They strip her naked, of everything—undo her whalebone corset, hook by hook. Locked away in Wildthorn Hall—a madhouse—they take her identity. She is now called Lucy Childs. She has no one; she has nothing. But, she is still seventeen—still Louisa Cosgrove, isn't she? Who has done this unthinkable deed? Louisa must free herself, in more ways than one, and muster up the courage to be her true self, all the while solving her own twisted mystery and falling into an unconventional love . ..

Originally published in the UK, this well-paced, provocative romance pushes on boundaries—both literal and figurative—and, do beware: it will bind you, too.

 

This is a fairly recent addition to my shelf. This book looks pretty neat. I love the cover! I didn’t actually read the synopsis but I did read an expert that was on the back of the book and it sounded pretty good. I think I will like the writing style of the book. This is also a stand-alone book which is nice every once in a while. There are so many series out.
