Publisher Description
Don’t be so dramatic!
Gavin DeWitt has given up a career on the stage to take his place among the respectable gentry of Crosspatch Corners. His older sister has married quite well, and now it’s Gavin’s job to ensure he and his younger siblings make an excellent impression on polite society too. He’s handsome, witty, charming--and quietly dying inside--but nonetheless playing the role of country gentleman desperately well.
Will it be kisses… or curtains?
Enter Mrs. Rose Roberts, a widow from Gavin’s theatrical past. She broke his heart when last they parted, but oddly enough, he broke her heart too. Can they piece together what really happened and forge a future together, despite the forces of mischief and mayhem plotting more fiercely than ever to keep them apart?
Customer Reviews
Enthralled to the last page!
Mrs. Rose Roberts and Mr. Gavin DeWitt were enamored of each other many years ago when their paths crossed, but due to a tragic misunderstanding on both sides, they separated with hurt feelings all around. When years later both are invited to another house party, their initial instinct is to avoid each other at all costs, but their initial attraction overcomes caution. Gavin left home to pursue an acting career against the advice and wishes of family. Rose endured an unhappy marriage to a man who was not only transparently unfaithful but a sot. That these two wounded people manage to renew their attachment is nothing short of miraculous, but outside influences and circumstances threaten to rip them apart, once again. Mixed in with their renewed love story is a whodunit of dangerous proportions that could negatively impact all their lives. Just when the reader thought she knew where this story was going, Ms. Burrowes threw an unanticipated curveball to keep the reader enthralled to the last page. As always, Ms. Burrowes writes witty dialog, beautiful descriptive prose, along with honorable and empathetic characters. I highly recommend Miss Dramatic, the latest addition to Ms. Burrowes Mischief in Mayfair series. I received an Advanced Reader Copy of this book from the publisher and am voluntarily reviewing it.
