Marriage Motives,
By Merry Reader "Sissy" (Indianapolis IN USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The wings of the morning (Atlantic large print) (Paperback)
Kathleen Sheridan was a sweet devoted daughter, so when she knew her loving father Gerald was very sick. His doctor told her that Gerald had to get to a warmer climate if he was going to survive.Kathie brought smoking tobacco for her father even knowing his doctor told him he couldn't smoke anymore. But Kathie couldn't help spoil her father when ever she got a few pounds to spend on him. Kathie's mom had a favorite daughter, Eileen with her golden hair and blue eyes, next was Bride with her dark brown hair and brown eyes, then Kathie with the brown eyes and hair that started out red/gold, then went all the way to dark chestnut in the book. In steps the rich Marques de Barrateira he is half Irish, and he is golden blond with dark blue eyes. He needs a wife to get his stepmother off his back and give him room to continue to morn the loss of his first wife the late Hildegrade. But when the truth comes out he stop loving Hildgrade long before she died. So for her father's sake she agrees to marry Sebastiao. Only on the day before the wedding Gerald dies. The news is kept from Katie, because she has already told Sebastiao if it hadn't been for Gerald's needs she wouldn't marry Sebastiao. From the back of the book: '"My dear Katie, My godson, the Marquies de Barrateira, and his stepmother have arrived unexpectedly, several days before I was looking forward to having them. I would like you, dear child, to come and join us for the week-end, and I hope this won't upset any of your own personal arrangements! My car will pick you up at two-thirty this afternoon" Kathie's two sisters could not understand this invitation from Lady Fitzosborne. Why would she invite quite, plain young Kathie instead of her much more attractive sisters? And indeed Kathie was puzzled too. But she reasoned that no doubt Lady Fitzosborne needed someone to help with the household arrangements rather than someone to help entertain her guests, and so she set off for the week-end intending to be as useful as possible. Thus begins a delightful story set in Ireland and later moving to Portugal.'
