Brimming with mystery and drama, THE PEACOCK ROOM by Merryn Corcoran is an unusual tale of secrets from start to finish.

When Allegra discovers that her husband has been cheating on her and has fallen in love with a much younger woman, she is devastated. She put her dreams to one side for him and it was all for nothing. Needing a break, she travels to Tuscany where her family are from, and falls in love with history and architecture all over again. Determined to discover more about her grandfather and the mysterious Peacock Room that he always mentions on his lucid days, Allegra soon finds herself trying to solve a family mystery and there may just be a hint of romance along the way.

There is a lot going on in this story - from family betrayals, a mystery from the past, art history and architecture, and romance, so you will never get bored. The characters are interesting and I really enjoyed the descriptions of each setting that brought the beauty of Italy to life as I read.

THE PEACOCK ROOM by Merryn Corcoran is a blend of history, mystery, drama, and romance and is sure to have something for everyone among its pages.

I loved this book! It was reminiscent of a Nancy Drew book, only an adult version. The idea of the Peacock Room being real has my imagination. I really hate to see this story end. Thank you to Red Door Publishing & the author, Ms Corcoran, herself for the gift of this free ARC.

There are so many things I could write about the Peacock room. The Peacock room is enchanting and I was hooked from the very first moment I found out the Peacock room actually exists inside Tuscany. I instantly felt transported inside these pages. Reading this book has been a delight and I recommend it for everyone.

This was a most enjoyable book. One that pulled my in right at the beginning. Unfortunately, I had many interruptions while reading it and if not for that, I would have finished it in a day. Oh well. No worries as I got to spend a little bit more time "traveling" to London and to the Castillo de Sammezzano in Florence, Italy (one of my favorite cities). Ms. Corcoran's descriptions of the Castillo were so detailed that I became fascinated with this Castillo that actually exists and had to look it up online. What an amazing and stunning place! I was mesmerized by the photos! The book had a great cast of characters. It was captivating and charming with a little mystery and some romance, and it is one that I recommend for a nice summer read! After reading The Peacock Room, I will be adding Ms. Corcoran's other books to my reading list.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the review copy.

This is my first time reading a book from this author, and I have to say I really enjoyed her writing style. The book had a great pace, and it was an easy read, and interesting. I definitely would consider reading another one of her books!
The book follows a woman named Allegra, as she tries to navigate a home life that is falling apart, and a mystery involving her grandfather. She is trying to find out what happened to her great grandfather, who disappeared many years ago, and who has always been a source of mystery in her family and in their village in Florence. Definitely a great mystery just waiting to be solved!
