Kittys Reader Notes & Book Excerpt

" When Alisa is persuaded to visit London and further her sister's ambitious schemes for entering fashionable society she little imagines how a visit backstage will change the lives of Penelope and herself.

The venture brings success but disaster looms when Penelope's eagerness for a rich husband almost precipitates them into a shocking scandal -- and at a Ball graced by the royal presence! Fortunately, the Earl is more than equal to the occasion and when his mouth holds hers captive Alisa rejoices that true love cannot be bought but comes as a gift of the gods..."

Barbara Cartland, the queen of romantic fiction, weaves her magic in The Gift of the Gods. With her signature 'frou frou' romantic style, she paints a delicious picture of the Regency era, capturing the elegance, charm, and allure of a world where love conquers all.

Lose yourself in the enchanting prose, as Cartland's words ignite your imagination and transport you to a world of grand balls, blossoming romance, and breathtaking declarations of love!
