Almost a traditional Regency--with a twist, January 7, 2000

By	Kimberly Borrowdale (Oregon USA) - See all my reviews

Not only did I enjoy reading this story, I was very impressed by its believeability and depth of feeling. It was gracefully done, subtle--it very much had the feel of a traditional regency. I've have enjoyed Ms. Martin's other regencies, and PEMBROKE PARK is much like them in that the can be outrageous and funny but also very human. This novel paints a slightly different--but not as different as one might think--of love, including the consequences that may occur if one is discovered.

I haven't previously read "lesbian fiction" and if this is what it's all like, then it doesn't seem much different than "regular" fiction, except that both protagonists are female. There are still the manners, the banter, and getting on in Society that we love in any Regency. I think I shall try some other genre fiction from Naiad press... very impressive.
