Customer Reviews

Not particularly a romance!

This wasn't a bad book but I didn't particularly care for it either. I've read about fifty of Ms Hill's books. This is the story of a household of children that are suddenly and unexpectantly orphaned. The oldest, a girl is almost of age and her brother is college age, then there are four (I think) younger siblings. The big bad relatives want to marry the oldest girl off and sent the rest to the country with a mean old aunt or boarding school soooooo they run away. This is a book of their adventures. The romance is about two pages at the end of the book, which was sudden and a bit much to swallow for me.

My Favorite

This one is one of my favorites. It will NOT bore you. It has a great, clean sense of humor. The children are really funny when they talk. I loved it!
