Book Overview
"Once upon a Time" Is Timeless When Rose's mother dies, her only comfort is the exquisite rose garden her mother left behind. The purple blossoms serve as an assurance of her mother's love. But Rose is dealt a second blow when her father dies and his greedy widow, Ombrine, and her daughter, Desir e, move in and take over the manor in true Cinderella fashion. Fate has been cruel to Ombrine and Desir e, too. So despite their harsh ways, Rose has compassion. But these feelings are bitterly tested when, in a rage, Ombrine tears out the garden. Rose nearly gives up all hope -- until a chance meeting with the king. Happiness might be within her reach, but first she must prevail over Ombrine. And then she must determine if she has the courage to love.

Holder Writes Another Winner
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Let's face it, you can't really go wrong with anything Nancy Holder writes -- she couldn't do a bad book if she tried, and with "The Rose Bride," Holder's one-upon-a-time story is simply a pure delight. I do this for a living, and it's such a joy to see somebody who can do it so much better than I. There's a lot to like in this one. Check it out and see for yourself.
