English professor Emma Douglas has always done everything just the way her minister father told her she should-a respectable marriage, a teaching job at a good college, and plans for the requisite two children.

I must admit that this title doesn't appeal to me. Sorry...
ReplyDeleteI haven't read this one yet but I did read her other book Mr Darcy Broke My Heart, awhile ago, and I liked it.
ReplyDeleteHere's another one that I think would be an interesting read, plus there's that cover *love* thing again lol
ReplyDeleteHer covers are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI have read it but it was when it first came out and now I can't recall what I did and didn't like about it.
ReplyDeleteI'm not really an Austen fan, nut I might check this one out! Great review! :)
ReplyDeleteSounds interesting.
ReplyDeleteI've just remembered that a few years ago I did read one of Beth Pattillo's chick-lit books: The Sweetgum Knit Lit Society. It was good.
This is a wonderful book that made me laugh and made me think. I enjoyed reading it. The characters feel very real. The letters while fictional feel like they could possibly hold a measure of truth. Beth Pattillo delivers a modern day romance that also holds interest for fans of Austen.
