Outstanding, wonderful, delightful. Beatrix Hathaway is an original, loosely modeled on Beatrix Potter. If you like animals in your romances, this is the book for you. The hedgehog, the mule, the goat and the traumatized dog are all scene stealers. The romance is top-notch, too. Kleypas successfully...

Finally the time has come for Beatrix Hathaway's book. Of all the peculiar and eccentric Hathaway siblings, Beatrix is possibly the freest spirit, the one most unorthodox and unlikely to fit comfortably into the staid norms of polite Victorian society. She rescues strays and injured animals and nur...

A great entry in The Hathaways series. I love this family. You know a book is good when it's difficult to put down (and you have something else you have to do).

For a while I couldn't describe in my reviews why one romance novel was better than the next. I knew something was going over my head until one day it hit me.......it has ROMANCE in it. It's not a bodice ripper

It's perfect in every way, from its romantic set-up, to the steady build-up of its characters, to its love story and conclusion itself. After finishing Tempt Me at Twilight, still my favorite of all Kl...

Lisa Kleypas never disappoints. Admittedly she doesn't write the "sexiest" books but I have never read one that I didn't like.What I like about this book- I love the beginning of this book and the beautiful love letters. Normally I would say that something like this would be too syrupy sweet for my ...

The youngest sister Hathaway, Beatrix, has always prefered animals to human interaction, but when her friend Prudence doesn´t bother with the mail correspondence with Captain Christopher Phelan, she feels the need to help. At first, just to help him with a troubled dog, but soon she can´t stop writi...

My Rating: 3.5 As I read more and more of Lisa Kleypas' novels, the more and more I fall in love with her books. They are all heartwarming, entertaining reads that just makes my day. Beatrix is the heroine in Love in the Afternoon and she is so uniquely different. I love how she cares dearly for ani...
