Customer Reviews

Christmas Cheer!

This is a very pleasing, happy Christmas story. One of my favorites, in fact. And, honestly, of course it's predictable. It's a romance novel. What, like they aren't going to end up together?

Beauty and The Beast is truly beautiful!

Early 1800's Ireland Nineteen-year-old Miss Margaret Catherine Penwell, a.k.a. as Marke, is last of nine children born to the late Captain Horace P. Penwell and Mrs. Mary Ashley Penwell. Mrs. Penwell is affectionately referred to as Mrs. "P" and she lives in the family's Irish estate of St. Catherine's Court while the remainder of the family resides in London. Mrs. "P's" health has been in steady decline and since Marke's lack of interest in debuting the London season, she volunteered to return to Ireland to care for their mother. Once settled, Marke makes the acquaintance of Mrs. Elisa Sittlemeyer, a.k.a. Sitter and Lord Claymore William Perfect, the Marquis of Boothe-Ashmore of nearby Innisfree. Marke and Sitter become instant friends, but Lord Perfect is another matter all together. The plucky Marke is the only one that seems to be able to withstand the depressed and sour Claymore's disposition. With her tenacious and cheery determination, can she bring to the once debonair Claymore back to his former self? And could they make a happy world of their own? A delightfully quick and easy-to-read interpretation of the beloved and timeless tale. Ms. Taylor writes with feeling and her detailed character descriptions and explanations are what reading enjoyment is all about. Very enjoyable!
