A Good Book of Short Romances!,
This review is from: For Mother With Love (Paperback)
I found this book in a used book store and I'm glad I bought it! For Mother, With Love is a collection of romance stories all written by different writers and it is a good book. The Virtues of Patience is written by Carol Quinto and is my favorite romance story in this book. Gregory Courtenay is the Duke of Norwick. He is looking to find a bride and asks his mother to find a proper bride for him. He is cynical about love and is not looking for a love match but basically just wants a wife to set up his nurseries and thinks that any woman should want to marry him for wealth and a position of rank but his mother is displeased with the cold cynical way he wants to go about finding a bride so her choice is the beautiful, intelligent and strong-willed Patience Cheswick who she feels can convince her cynical reserved son the virtues of a love match. My second favorite story is The Notorious Mrs. Carlton and it is written by Martha Kirkland. Ann Carlton sets out to find the mother she thinks abandoned her and her father when she was a little child and when she finds out where her mother may be living she sets out to find her and confront her so she arrives at the home of Michael Herndon, the fifth Baron Herndon pretending to be someone else and after spending a lot of time with Michael they fall in love but when she meets his stepmother Lenore and she knows that she has found her mother but her bitterness and resentment makes her finally reveal that she knows that Lenore is the mother she feels abandoned her but Michael sets out to let Ann know that her father wasn't honest with her and that things aren't always what they seem and he sets out to give Ann the chance of love. The story the Makeshift Mama is written by Dorothea Donley. Audrey Malton is hoping find a husband for her sister Susan so she pretends to be her widowed mother but Audrey winds up falling for Charles Aintree who she mistakenly thinks is in love with Susan. I recommend this book but especially for The virtues of Patience and The Notorious Mrs. Carlton.

I Liked Reading This Book Of Short Story Romances!,
A Kid's Review - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: For Mother With Love (Paperback)
For Mother With Love is a short story book of romance stories from different authors and I enjoyed reading it. The Virtues of Patience is my favorite and written by Carol Quinto an author I had never heard of before I read this. In The Virtues of Patience Gregory Courtenay the Duke of Norwick is looking to find a bride and asks his mother to find a proper bride for him. He wants a convenient wife to set up his nurseries and thinks that any woman will want to marry him for wealth and a position of rank and his mother who is a romantic is displeased with the cold cynical way he wants to go about finding his bride so her choice is the beautiful, intelligent and strong-willed Patience Cheswick who can convince her cynical reserved son the virtues of a true love match. My second favorite story is The Notorious Mrs. Carlton which is written by Martha Kirkland. Ann Carlton is a bitter young woman looking for the mother she thinks abandoned her as a child and wants to tell her off but when she finds her mother she finds out that what she had been told by her father about her mother was a lie and when she meets her mother's friend Michael Herndon, the fifth Baron Herndon they fall in love but will her bitterness get in the way? The Makeshift Mama is written by Dorothea Donley. Audrey Malton is trying to find a husband for her younger sister Susan and pretends to be her widowed mother but Audrey falls in love with Charles Aintree but things get complicated when she mistakenly thinks that he loves her sister Susan. I highly recommend this book but especially for The virtues of Patience and The Notorious Mrs. Carlton.
