Once daring and outrageous, Clare Winchester falls out of favor when her family suddenly loses its wealth, leaving her unmarried and snubbed, until the Earl of Northrup asks her to sponsor his niece for the upcoming debutante season.
A friend told me that Jessie Watson's books were special, so I wanted to begin with her first effort. Ms. Watson certainly has a way with words. The Changeable Rose is beautifully written. Her characters come to life and almost walk off the page. You will admire her heroine, Clare Winchester, whose loss of her fortune has set her outside the society of which she was once a part. Her hero is all too human, not to mention handsome and charming! Ms. Watson's dialogue is bright and witty,and settings are so authentic that they will draw you right into the Regency period.After finishing The Changeable Rose, I moved right on to The Cat's Bracelet, Watson's second book. It, too, was super. Please see my review on that page. Meanwhile, I am on to her third book and am enjoying it just as much.
