This review is from: Friday Dreaming (Legacy of Love Large Print) (Hardcover)

Sometimes I feel I really don't try enough authors out. Yet another I hadn't come across before whose book I throughly enjoyed. Her heroine either wears her spectacles or peers at a world of blobs.

From the back of the hardback:

She did not wish to marry.. .if she could not marry Nicolas.

And as Miss Frideswid Edhorough - familiarly known as Friday
- well knew, she could no more marry Nick than fly to the moon.

She was plain Friday, a bluestocking, spectacled miss, not even remotely pretty, unlike the females Nick's taste ran to as she could be. It seemed then that she was doomed to spinsterhood... But Friday had reckoned without a father determined to see his daughter - sole heir to the Edborough estate - off the proverbial shelf...

This review is from: Friday Dreaming (Paperback)

Stylistically author tries to be like Jane Austen but doesn't do it quite as well. Heroine is well drawn out and you feel for her pining for her friend and secret crush. Ending is a little rushed. Sweet with minimal sensuality.
