ISBN-13: 9780764232121 Will circumstances drive them apart? OK, can I just start off with a confession? Good. I almost was not looking forward to reading A Gilded Lady. There, it's out! As much as I enjoy Elizabeth Camden's books and as much as I loved the first book in the Hope And Glory series, I just did NOT like Caroline Delacroix in The Spice King. My opinion now that I've finished A Gilded Lady? Well, I still think that Caroline is spoiled and demanding but she really grew on me in a way I never expected. | This Book received a 4 Bark rating. |
I am really getting into the Hope And Glory series, each story has been fascinating and thought-provoking, and I absolutely can't wait for the next book so I can finally find out the answers to the overarching storyline of the mysterious third Delacroix sibling. If you like historical romance haven't read A Gilded Lady yet I would definitely recommend adding it, and the rest of Elizabeth Camden's wonderful Hope And Glory series, to your TBR list...
