Amazing

Amazing. Very sexy and exciting but not explicit and gratuitous. We meet Flora as a young lonely girl of ten on vacation with her selfish, neglectful parents. We follow her life as she matures to a beautiful woman. Three men love her but which does she love and which one will she choose. This is one book hard to put down.

modern jane austen

Not to say wesley has austen's genius, but one reads her with the same sense of delight.This is an extremely sexy book, but without the extreme explicitness of romance novels, which I always think ruins it.Wonderful light reading.

read all her books!

I am currently reading all of Mary Wesley's books, they are addictive. She creates excellent, sympathetic characters, sets them in interesting situations, and makes the plot move along, without resorting to caricatures or unbelievable coincidences. Plus, she knows how to write GOOD.
