Lily is the type of character you want to see come to life! I loved following her journey as her feelings tried to fight through the ingrained Rules and approval of her mother. Lily’s story was heartwarming, but there was enough laughter and fun thrown in there to keep it exciting and endearing. Wonderful debut from Ania Ray!

It felt so good to connect with a main character like I did with Lily! I haven’t been so entranced with a plot in a long time, but The Cromwell Rules changed this. Such a fun, easy, read. It will leave you wanting more.

The story of Lily captures your interest right from the beginning. I was captivated with her character! All women can relate to Lily’s complex relationship with her mom. The constant struggle with pleasing your family and following your own heart will resonate with all readers.

I am in awe that this is a first for Ania Ray. I finished the book in 48 hours with a busy schedule and 5 kids because it was that good. I am hoping for a sequel or like previously mentioned maybe a movie. I was so captivated and I can’t wait to see what else Ania Ray has for us! Highly recommend!

It’s hard to believe that this intriguing and complex novel is the first for author Ania Ray. The sultry red lips on the front cover immediately draw the reader in to discover just what are the Cromwell rules that our heroine Lily must follow? And will she ever find a suitor who meets all the requirements?

Amazing, fast paced, entertaining and sexy story, could not put the book down. The story is about NYC socialite, power woman Lily Cromwell, whose upbringing, unspoken rules of the society and family tradition are challenged by the authentic true love. The book describes many episodes of self questioning and struggle many women encounter growing up, making themselves as well as choosing their life partner.
