What I Read: A Gentleman Always Remembers by Candace Camp
Rating: 4/5

Before i start writing about this very cool novel, i would like to take the time to apologize to you all out there for being a lazy bum and neglecting this blog for a while. I have actually read three books since my last post but i will only review the first one because i think it deserves a blog post all on its own.

The novel A Gentleman Always Remembers is actually the second book in a trilogy following Candace Camp's first novel of this series titled A Lady Never Tells which i have already reviewed in my last post.

Unlike the first novel in this trilogy the heroine, Eve Hawthorne who is a widow, does not have any sisters and has to deal with a very infuriating step mother who you want to strangle from the get go. ( I had to restrain myself there for a while since i was thinking of much worse words to describe her and if it hadn't been for Erin, i think i would have had to put a rating of 14+ on this post). Whats so cool though is that she manages to get away from this horrible step mother by agreeing to become a governess to the Earl of Stewkesbury's cousins which are the four American sisters that we were introduced to in the first novel. But, being a governess can apparently open up many doors... one of them being able to meet the Earl's brother, Fitz :)

Fitz to me can only be described as a British 18th century version of Chuck Bass.....and for all of you out there who don't watch Gossip Girl, he is pretty much a Ladies' man (Erin just happened to glance over at this moment and read this and we just died laughing. So.... i moved her sofa and told her to stop reading since i wasn't done!) lol anwayz back to our novel; so yeah we have this very proper nice woman who wants a life of quietness and everything in order and a man who doesn't want to settle down..... don't get me wrong he is nice and charming but he just does not understand the big deal about marriage.... and if you want to know what happens from there then you have to borrow, buy, or steal (Joking....or am I? lol) this book and figure out what happens in the end. Oh and i promise that it is a good ending and you wont be disappointed!

Intrigued? not yet? I forgot to add that there is also something about a mysterious watch, an attempted murder, jail, a maze in the backyard, threatening letters, being a widow and a virgin at the same time, a snotty neighbour named Sabrina who sleeps with about anyone out there and many many more random yet mysterious things you will understand once you read the book!

Overall, a really good continuation and i cannot wait until the third one comes out so i can get more mystery and romance and hopefully be satisfied? never! lol....Anywayz enough rambling and hope to blog soon about the other two books i read but for now.....

Toodles!

Rasha :)
