She is shocked to find out that their family farm in Dorsetshire is heavily in debt and that Kitty and her 4 sisters are penniless. The worldly Radcliffe sees Kitty for the mercenary fortune-hunter that she really is and is determined to scotch her plans at all costs, until their parrying takes a completely different turn. I won’t mince words here: this was a very, very bland book, not a single shred of personality to be found anywhere. Eso si, si buscáis pasión arrolladora y escenas picantes ya os digo que aquí no lo vais a encontrar, es todo mucho más light aunque hay mucha química. This is all about Kitty (Katherine) Talbot who needs a rich husband to take care of her father's massive debts after he passed away - and help save her sisters from ruin.
My thanks to HarperCollins UK Audio and NetGalley for the ALC of “A Lady’s Guide to Fortune-Hunting”. Radcliffe’s banter with Kitty is charming and their strong love-hate connection is what elevates the story further. Infelizmente, o seu noivo, cancela o casamento e Kitty vê-se obrigada a ir para a temporada londrina à procura de marido. Unlike Heyer, there is no on-page bigotry, thankfully (though the world is very white and straight, like most trad pub historical romances).Not only is Sophie Irvin best friends with the historical elements, but her light as a feather and sharp as a naked stiletto wit and imagination created the most delicious pair I have had the pleasure to accompany in a romance novel. I would have enjoyed the book more if it had been a bit more focused and had a greater depth of feeling.
Kitty might come across as abrasive to some readers, but the author does such a nice job portraying her that I found her quite wonderful as the book progresses. And although overall I really liked the various conversations between Kitty and Radcliffe, to me there was always something a little off about their relationship.All things seem to be going her way until a veteran of Waterloo catches wind of what she might be plotting. Kitty Talbot está hasta arriba de deudas, sus padres han fallecido y ella es la mayor de cinco hermanas. And I would’ve forgiven it its simplistic characters if it maybe had some interesting character interactions or dynamics, but no, that’s nowhere to be found either. She was blinkered at times but loved her family dearly and was determined to shield her sisters from penury. I had heard much praise for Sophie Irwin's debut novel, and whilst I wouldn't rank her among Heyer or Austen, this was certainly a delightfully fun read.
To access your ebook(s) after purchasing, you can download the free Glose app or read instantly on your browser by logging into Glose.Kitty no busca cazar un noble o alguien socialmente superior a ella, se conforma con que su marido sea rico y pueda saldar sus deudas. Her love and passion for historical fiction bring a breath of fresh air and a contemporary energy to the genre, and Sophie hopes to transport readers to a time when ballrooms were more like battlegrounds. The plot is also pretty self explanatory and I could see every step of the story long before it came to fruition, which meant I wasn't surprised by anything that happened. Con el poco dinero de que disponen, Kitty se va a Londres con su tercera hermana Cecily, para intentar encontrar un marido rico.
