RUSE & ROMANCE
The Beaucroft Girls,
Book One
SUZANNE G. ROGERS
Review by Roy Murry,
Author
Kitty and Juliet are
the Beaucroft girls who live in England during the mid-1800s. I won't tell you
who is the prettiest because it is part of the story, but I will say to you
Kitty is the oldest, and during the times and in proper society, she should be
the first to marry an eligible wealth titled bachelor.
The 'Season' has begun
in London, and their wealthy parents are expecting one of the girls to woo a
man of the Lordly class. Let the games begin, and they do.
A scandalous event between Kitty and a Lord presents a socially unacceptable result. To save
Kitty's status, another Lord, and her parents contrive The Ruse, which
leads into a Romance, that is not proper enough for Kitty's parents.
Then there are twists and turns after The Ruse is in place, which makes for enjoyable reading for the
romantic in you. The reader of this pleasant novel will keep waiting for the
end, but this is book one, and the hook catches - the reader will want more of
The Beaucroft Girls.
The prose and the background are in the 1800s English but not overwhelming. The novel is a quick, enjoyable read.
