A Most Unconventional Match by Julia Justiss, 4

Book description: Hal Waterman's calling on the newly widowed Elizabeth Lowery is the caring act of a gentleman. And with her household in turmoil and a young son to support, she is certainly grateful for his help. Hal finds Elizabeth even more lovely than when they first met, but knows that she will only ever see him as a kind and often taciturn friend.
Elizabeth finds comfort and companionship in Hal's caring of her. But then a tantalizing desire starts to simmer. His reassuring strength and presence have become so very attractive…so alluring….

Review: A Most Unconventional Match is the kind of historical romance I love to read. It features two nice, normal people falling in love without too much drama. Hal isn’t a duke or a rake; he’s just an average guy who is a little shy. I didn’t like his odd speech patterns at first but by the end of the book it didn’t bother me at all. He’s definitely one of the most likeable heroes I’ve read about recently. If you like sweet historical romances without alpha heroes you should pick this up.
