Lädt ... The Rose Girlsvon Victoria Connelly
![]() Keine Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch. ![]() ![]() Celeste, Evelyn and Gertrude are the "Rose Girls" of the story. They are three sisters who live in a crumbling old manor house - complete with moat - from which they are trying to keep the family business going. Hamilton Roses are famous for their superior colors and amazing scent, but the business is in trouble due to the unexpected death of the girls' mother, Penelope, who had been running things. The book had potential, but the writing is a bit amateurish and it's hard to really care about Celly, Evie, and Gertrude as they seem to be competing to see who can be the biggest nitwit. Penelope seemed to be the most interesting character, so it's a shame she was dead. This was not a terrible read, but in general, the characters aren't well developed and the plot is predictable. I found it ironic that the author actually mentions "I Capture the Castle" which is a much better book of this genre and obviously an inspiration. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Thirty-year-old Celeste Hamilton's life is at a crossroads: she has just left a disastrous marriage, and her estranged mother has recently died, leaving the family's rose business in jeopardy. Reluctantly, Celeste returns to the family home, a moated manor house in Suffolk, to help her two younger sisters sort out the estate and revive the business. Having endured the fallout from her mother's Narcissistic Personality Disorder when she was younger, Celeste is filled with self-doubt and crippling insecurities. But she must find the strength and courage to take charge and make some tough decisions to keep the old house from falling down around them. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
