Return to Edenbrooke in this deluxe edition of the #1 all-time best-selling Proper Romance, which includes never-before-shared annotations from beloved romance author Julianne Donaldson.
My Review:
"Edenbrooke,” the Deluxe Edition, by Julianne Donaldson
is such a gorgeous keepsake! Readers will love returning to this beloved book
that includes new features, such as annotations from the author, sprayed edges,
and a stunning cover! This will be prominently displayed on my bookshelves. I
thoroughly enjoyed my re-read of this delightful, witty, and humorous story and
was again reminded of why I and so many others love this story. Our heroine,
Marianne Daventry, loves to twirl and wants to learn fencing and archery and be
different from her seemingly perfect twin sister. She is stubborn, feisty and
struggles with feeling like she needs to be socially acceptable. Marianne
learns she needs to be true to herself. She meets a handsome stranger (swoon
alert!). She travels to a country estate with a glorious library, while dealing
with highwaymen and love on the way. Will she find a reason to twirl again? I
love the sweet and honest relationship between Phillip and Marianne. Phillip
brings out the best in her. Each is afraid that they will be loved by
their misfortunes or possessions, instead of for themselves. They want to feel
accepted and esteemed. I absolutely loved the special annotations throughout,
which really added a whole new experience while reading the book. I highly
recommend this book and special edition for lovers of sweet, clean Regency
romance!
Edenbrooke, Deluxe Edition bonus content:
—Prequel novelette, “Heir to Edenbrooke”

TW: loss; grief; parental abandonment; unwanted kiss.
I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book
which I received from the author. All views expressed are only my honest
opinion.
