A View Most Glorious by Regina Scott is the story of Coraline Baxter, her quest to summit Mount Rainier to promote Votes for Women in 1893 Tacoma, Washington, and Nathan Hardee, the man who reluctantly agrees to guide her to the top. The stakes are as high as the mountain itself. If Cora fails, she must marry the man her mother is forcing on her. Not at all agreeable to Cora, so she must summit regardless of the hardship to do so.
Cora and Nathan’s relationship develops as they learn to depend on each other while they tackle the mountain together. And in the end, they each must decide what is most important.
If you enjoy historical fiction with a touch of romance and a hero and heroine to root for, than A View Most Glorious may just be the book for you.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Revell for a fair and honest review, which is exactly what I gave.

Intriguing. I love that it’s based in Washington with Mount Rainier being the mountain they have to summit. It’s one of my favorite mountains. Absolutely breath taking. I recently made an oil painting of it. I downloaded a free sample of this book. Thank you for reviewing it.

Sannuthi, that is interesting, indeed. While this book is fiction, in the early 1890s a woman did summit Rainier to draw attention to women’s right to vote. I’m sure you painting is gorgeous. ๐
