HTML:The ramshackle River Queen Hotel is home to vagabonds, gamblers, and heathensâ??and now, to new widow Rose Peterson. The rundown Gold Rush establishment is the only thing her late husband, Emmet, left her. Despite its raucous saloon and ladies of the evening, Rose can see the hotel's potential. Her late husband's family claim that sheltered Rose isn't capable of running the Sacramento inn herself. But she is determined to make a new life for herself and her young daughter, even if it means flying in the face of custom and propriety. She feels as if she hasn't a friend in the world. Except, perhaps, one. Decatur "Deke" Fleming, a tall, lanky Australian who once served as Emmet's farmhand. Pride prevents Deke from revealing his moneyed past; conscience keeps him from confessing his feelings for the still grieving widow. But when Rose is tempted by wealthy civic leader and hotel owner Mason Talbot, Deke may be the only person who can save herâ??and the one man capable of reviving her bruised and battered heart . . . Praise for Shirley Kennedy and her novels "The historical details are vivid and realistic and should appeal to fans of the historical romance genre. The characters are interesting, the story is engaging, and the romance is slow-building and sweet. River Queen Rose is a great start in what looks to be a promising historical series by Kennedy." â??RT Book Reviews, 4 Stars "Shirley Kennedy spins a tale sure to pull at the heartstrings of her readers." â??RT Book Reviews on Three Wishes for Miss Winthrop, Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
