Loading... Lady Whistledown Strikes Backby Julia Quinn, Suzanne Enoch (Contributor), Karen Hawkins (Contributor), Mia Ryan (Contributor)
None.  saraferrell | Apr 3, 2013 |  A pesar de la melancolía que persigue a los personajes, la historia es entretenida y dulce. Todo ocurre un poco demasiado rápido y no tiene tanto humor como otras narraciones de Julia Quinn, sin embargo se disfruta.Y qué pasó con el brasalete? yo creo que se lo comió el pajarraco (  ) outlanders | May 16, 2012 | "Peter Thompson made a deathbed promise to his best friend that he'd look out for his younger sister. But when this decorated soldier finally met Lady Mathilda Howard, he discovered that his feelings were anything but brotherly. " ( ) amarynt | Jul 28, 2010 | Lady Whistledown comments in her gossip column of particular people involved in a dinner party, around which the book revolves. Four different relationships develop in each of the four novellas, the stories of each intersecting at some point with the others. The themes of rich debutantes being pursued and seduced by poor titled gentleman, rich but scandalous titled gentleman pursuing and seducing upright not so rich debutantes, rich titled gentleman pursuing and seducing spinsters in trade and estranged rich titled husband pursuing and seducing wife are expolored. The closest thing you will get to an early Amanda Quick novel without it being an Amanda Quick. ( ) reeread | Mar 2, 2009 | Four stories prefaced with Lady Whistledown excerpts - good and romantic, centered around a disappearing necklace. I rather liked all (but the last) of the stories in this one – especially those concerning servants or poor people finding love. (  ) kayceel | Feb 23, 2009 | no reviews | add a review

I can't remember all the particulars, but Tillie's (Lady Mathilda, daughter of an Earl) brother Harry died in the war, and his closest friend was Peter Thompson. The two meet at Lady Neely's party, where her ruby bracelet is stolen (the search for the person who took it continues through all four stories). Peter promised Harry that he'd take care of Tillie, but he wasn't expecting the girl to be so beautiful..... :)
