I loved reading the proposal. Period. Just like the odd girl in the corner of the coffee shop with her nose so deep in the spine of the book you'd think she would go cross eyed while you tried to figure out how she managed to snarf down chocolate and coffee while she was at it. Don't even mention th...
It’s been a little over thirteen years since we last saw Gwendoline, Lady Muir in a book. She first makes an appearance in One Night for Love as the Earl of Kilbourne's widowed sister who offers support to her cousin Lauren when she’s left at the altar. The Gwen we see in The Proposal is different f...
Gwendoline Grayson was left widowed, with a permanent limp and probably barren womb. Hugo Emes was given a lordship for his brave leadership during the war, but now he is plagued with guilt for surviving after leading so many men to their deaths. They meet by chance on a rocky shoreline, and Gwen'...
To me, this was your typical romance. Mary Balogh is always a pretty safe read with me. Something that I can read quickly, doesn't require much thought, but I walk out at least somewhat enjoying. The Proposal fit that bill perfectly. Everything about this book was "safe" and cookie cutter. It fit th...
A nice start to a new series. This one was a bit slow, maybe too slow. The slow road for two people that didn't really like each other very much in the beginning. With both having their own demons inside they have to work through. It was nice to see how the heroine saw through the Hero and his stoic...
A gentle, low-key romance between two vastly unsuitable people, a man and a woman from different social classes. The author doesn’t introduce a mystery or a thriller into her story to make it interesting. Instead, she delves deep into the thoughts and emotions of the protagonists: Gwendoline, Lady M...
3.5/5; 4 stars; B+Mary Balogh is one of those writers who I know will always deliver a good story. I first met Lady Gwendolyn when reading 'A Summer to Remember' and subsequently ran into her quite a few times through the telling of the Bedwyn stories. This is the story of her release from purgato...
It is Gwen's story from One Night for Love The Bedwyn's prequel. It was nice to see her get her own story. Good buildup for the series, loved the characters, but the story felt flat and lifeless in spots.
Loved, loved, loved it! Mary Balogh always gets her characters right as believable human beings, and her little descriptions of how people feel, their internal dialogue, in various social situations are just brilliant. I *so* want to read about all of the Survivors' Club members now!
