Wow! *by J***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2016* Julia Grey! Wow, you just have to love her.Julia is an orphan, but lives with her Uncle and Aunt. They have a daughter, Phoebe, who is clearly favored and loved more then Julia. Through out the book you see how little Julia matters to her Uncle and Aunt. My heart broke every time they did or said something to her that made her feel less then worthy...and that was often. I have to stop her and explain how real Julia became to me when her family mistreated her. I am the Godmother to 5 great-nieces/great-nephews and NEVER in my wildest thoughts could I imagine treating them less then my own. Every time they reminded Julia of her "lesser" status...I saw those beautiful 5 faces in my mind. So, from the beginning moments...Julia had my heart.Julia is the type of person that you'd love to know in real time. She's strong, smart, analytical, kind and generous...she is, as the book describes her, "....older then her years....".Her life gets a little topsy-turvy when she meets Nicholas Langdon. Nicholas has no intention of falling in love...even though Phoebe (Julia's cousin) has every intention to make him do so.As the story progresses you get glimpses of the back stories for Nicholas, Julia and even Phoebe. The delightful game of cat and mouse continues with these three (and a few others) as the story continues. You learn why Nicholas is against falling in love, you discover Julia's reasoning and you figure out why Phoebe is....well, Phoebe.Nicholas and Julia find themselves in the middle of a conspiracy and are trying their best to work their way out of it and do the right thing for their country...which isn't very easy when people you care for are involved.At some points in the book...I couldn't wait to see what happened next and would jump ahead a few chapters to "peek" into the future of these characters. That type of excitement and anticipation for a story doesn't happen often. But, when you become invested in the character and fall in love with the hero/heroine...you can't help but want to jump ahead. Ahhh...if only life was like that!Melanie has a way of creating characters that are relatable and in doing so she creates wonderful worlds where we can not only visit, but reflect on, enjoy and long to return to one day. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Spy's Devotion *by P***. on Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2016* A SPY'S DEVOTION is a departure from Melanie Dickerson's usual books. Instead of being a fairy tale retelling, it is a regency romance. As with her other books, it is an entertaining story that held my interest from beginning to end. Regency books do rile me up though: the snobbery and the lack of options for women. Julia Grey is an orphan who has lived with her aunt, uncle, and cousin, Phoebe since she was a young child. Phoebe is a couple of years younger than Julia and is very spoiled. She is convinced she is in love with Nicholas Langdon, a young British officer who has returned home to heal from a battlefield injury. However, he finds himself drawn to Julia, which causes problems, especially when her uncle forbids her to meet with him and orders her to marry Hugh Edgerton. How will Julia get out of being forced to marry the scoundrel Edgerton? Will she (gasp!) have to become a governess? The spying Nicholas and Julia are doing for the Crown brings danger to them both. The woman who threw Nicholas over to marry another man several years ago is now a widow and further complicates things. There are many interesting characters in this book, both likable and contemptible. I enjoyed it very much. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lovely story untouched of Austen *by K***L on Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2017* Having enjoyed many of Melanie Dickersons fairy tale re-telling, I looked forward to reading this book. I was not disappointed!The story of Julia and Nicholas is delightful and exciting. From poor relation to spy to governess, poor Julia always tries to do what society asks. However, she doesn't find true love, revelations do not value her, and her future looks bleak.Turning to God for wisdom, her life takes several abrupt turns, most for the worst.Nicholas is a soldier on leave because of wounds suffered in the Napoleonic wars. He inadvertently has become involved in espionage due to the 'innocent' diary he was asked to deliver upon his return to England.You will enjoy finding how the paths of Julia and Nicholas cross and how they both find their way through the obstacles their enemies, and society, throw in their path.Enjoyed this book very much, purchasing the next as soon as I finish this review! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tw/products/23560889-a-spys-devotion-paperback-february-9-2016](https://www.desertcart.tw/products/23560889-a-spys-devotion-paperback-february-9-2016) --- *Product available on Desertcart Taiwan* *Store origin: TW* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
