ReviewĪna María and The Fox is at once a breath of fresh air within historical romance and the kind of novel that will appeal to fans of the genre. Ana María and Gideon are well-matched, yet would being together make sense for Gideon’s career? Would it make sense if Ana María intends to return to Mexico and her aloof fiancé there? It may take the threat of danger before these two are pushed together.

The grandson of a formerly enslaved woman, Gideon has significant ideals and goals, especially related to the abolition of slavery and slave ships around the world. Soon, Ana María meets Gideon Fox, a politician who’s worked hard to get into this career. Although their politician father wants them to lie low, the three instead aim to bolster England’s perception of Mexico, hopefully enough to help Mexico in the war.

In July 1863, Ana María Luna Valdés and her two younger sisters arrive in London, escaping Mexico during the Second French Occupation. Special thanks to the publicists at Penguin Random House and to NetGalley for providing me with an ARC of this book! Summary The eldest sister, Ana María, is immediately drawn to a biracial politician, Gideon Fox, but they have a lot to overcome before they can consider a happily ever after with each other. The first in her Luna Sisters series, this historical romance is set in the 1860s and follows three Mexican heiresses fleeing their home country for England.

For at least six months, one of my most highly anticipated books has been Ana María and The Fox by Liana De La Rosa.
