Ilustration In Pursuance Of Books The Bridal Season (Bridal Stories #1)
Letty Potts has gotten into a few fixes in her twenty-five years, but this is her worst predicament yet. A petty schemer by necessity, the struggling music hall performer has decided to go straight. But after narrowly escaping the wrath of her partner in crime, she finds herself at Paddington Station with nothing but the gown she's wearing ... and another woman's train ticket clutched in her hand. Now masquerading as the redoubtable "Lady Agatha," of Whyte Wedding Celebrations, Letty arrives in the backwater burg of Little Bidewell, where she is to arrange the nuptials of a young society bride.Amid the dizzying whirl of pre-wedding festivities, nobody suspects Letty's secret ... except the sensual and aristocratic Sir Elliot March. A war hero who has forsworn love, Elliot senses something decidedly amiss about this outspoken young woman. Yet she awakens a passionate yearning he'd thought was lost to him forever. And soon a desperate masquerade embroils them both in a web of scandal and danger as Letty's past catches up with her --- threatening their lives ... and a love without peer.

Letty Potts finds herself in the right place at the right time when she needs to get out of London fast, and heads to Little Bidewell, where she is mistaken for Lady Agatha Whyte. There she meets Sir Elliot March, magistrate, war veteran, and all-around gentleman. THEY FALL IN LOVE. Here's the thing I really enjoy about Brockway: the books I've read of hers thus far have all been late Victorian / early Edwardian and she manages to capture those times in such a skilled way. You can feel theMy all-time favorite romance novel. Yes, the new tag means I'm re-reading it, again. Deal with it, it's that good.
This 2001 Victorian romance is one of my Brockway favorites. It's fun, frothy and totally romantic. And the hero is one of my all-time favorite HR leading men. He's just so gosh-darned good and honorable (not to mention handsome, sexy and somewhat intense) that I fell in love with him right along with the heroine.The plot would make a really fun rom-com movie. Sometime music hall performer and part-time scam artist Letty Potts needs to flee London and manages to find herself masquerading as an
I needed something to read on a slow Saturday at work. I had read a novella by Brockway and generally found it amusing, so I grabbed the first title that I saw was available. This was cute, and escaped the romance novel trope of "this could all be solved in a single conversation, but we're not going to have that conversation." I would recommend to romance novel readers, and those looking to branch out into "historical" romances as well as romance in genera.
Another good book that took a while to get where it was going - this ended up a very strong 4.5* but not quite a 5* read. I do love stories where the heroine has the willpower and the strength to pull herself out of a bad situation and create a better life, and I knew that was going to happen eventually (this is a romance story, after all), but it didn't really 'drag me in' until chapter 10. After that, it was like a train going downhill! Letty's emotional and moral journey was so very
Funny very funny. Letty is charming and knows how to hold her own. I could not put this one down and kept waking my hubby by laughing. Very fun.
3-3.5 starsFun read... light, witty, banter with a twist of Cockney, musical actresses, acrobats, and con men. Oh, and a delicious, honorable gentleman who starts as a "Sir" and becomes a "Lord" (baron).Letty Potts is simply trying to escape Nick Sharpe, a con man she's fallen in with as she tried to make her way in the musical theatre. Letty is the by-blow of a viscount who wouldn't acknowledge her. Letty's mother, Veda, was a skilled seamstress, who blackmailed her way into the viscount's home
