Good Read
This book was actually not that bad. It took a while to get to the good part, but after that, it was hard to put down because you had to know if Constance gave in and let her guard down and found love. Good read.

ugh
This book bored me to death. I tried to drag myself through it about three times until I finally gave up. My book is somewhere on my bookshelf waiting for the garbage.

Having a difficult time getting through the entire book...
I'm a great fan of Jane Feather's, however, I am having a tough time with this book. I normally can finish a book of this size in less than a day...so far, it's been a couple of weeks and I still can't finish it. The heroine and her sisters are very strange for their time period, but suprisingly they are not very interesting. Max, the hero in the book does absolutely nothing for me and again...not very interesting. I was very disappointed with this book and probably won't bother with the entire trilogy.

Romance at its best
Due to the dumb investments of their father, The Duncan sisters are broke. Their dad refuses to listen to their financial plight as that is beneath a gentleman. Instead the three siblings publish and secretly sell the ¿Mayfair Lady¿, a gossip political newspaper pushing women¿s suffrage that now accepts personal ads............................................... Oldest sister Constance meets Parliamentary representative from Southwold Max Eisner, who realizes that she is gently mocking him and his sister. He finds himself attracted to her because, unlike his shallow featherbrained sister, Constance displays obvious intelligence and wit; she reciprocates though she loathes his opinion on women voting. When his party leadership assigns him to expose the unknown authors of the ¿Mayfair Lady, he believes the clever writing skills and subjects mean a member of the Ton. The dry sense of humor sounds very much like the Duncan siblings, but opening them up for ridicule could be very costly personally to Max............................... Historical romance readers will receive a delightful bounty of joy with this deep look back on the early stages of the women¿s suffrage movement in England. The story line displays its theme in a clever gentle mocking manner so that the audience understands the sympathies and antipathies while also receiving a warm romance. Fans will enjoy this tale and look forward to the next two Duncan sisters star in their respective novels................................ Harriet Klausner
