Good reading; strong heroine
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Heather was such a wonderful and strong heroine. Willing and able to take care of herself, she creates happiness around her by careful, loving manipulation of others. She is a lady through and through even though brought up common and abused. She is unwanted by her stepfather who sees her as "lord's leavings" despite his own willingness to take the lords stipend for her care! Heather fit in wherever she landed, be it a humble cottage or the Regent's palace. Beau, unbeknownst to him, is her lifelong love. I found him undeserving of her devotion, sometimes cruel. Heather teaches him many humbling lessons. Beau eventually comes to the realization that he loves her and his various heroic acts saved me from thinking badly of him. This book is filled with rich characters. The dialog and expression of feelings is wonderful. The introduction of Princess Charlotte as Heather's friend and confidante added dimension to the story. It is rather unbelievable at times and not exactly historically correct but I found it a great read -- not to be missed.
