THE TEA PLANTER'S WIFE BY DINAH JEFFERIES is about Gwen Hooper, who at the age of 19 marries a tea grower after a whirlwind romance. She knows very little about Lawrence, her new husband ,and even less about Ceylon the country, or how to be a married woman. She arrives in Ceylon and realizes she is way over her head in all aspects of this new life. Her duties are to manage the accounts of the house(which she has no experience in) manage the household staff ( which hate her) & to be the wife of a man she barely knows. Secrets abound at the plantation & about her husband & Gwen is determined to find out all the answers.
THE TEA PLANTER'S WIFE is historical fiction with a dash of mystery to keep it interesting. Since I adore both genre's it was a great read for me! I recieved this book free from goodreads in exchange for a honest review
