Synopsis: A collection of seven romance novellas set in the fantasy world of the vast island continent of Penruddock. Marigold, Poppy, Rose, Violet, Krysantha, Peony, and Hyacinth aren't just the names of beautiful flowers. They're also the names of the romantic protagonists in seven novellas. These women follow different paths in their pursuit of love and romance; and may experience adventure, danger, conspiracy, comedy, and tragedy on their way to finding a sweet love. For some, it's the first love. For others, a second. In spite of opposition and obstacles that sometimes block their way, they all strive for a love which is sweet and true. Three of the women are commoners. Four are of the nobility. Each in her own way challenges the conventions of her time. Come and meet The Flowers of Penruddock. Also included is the Jane Austen fan fiction fantasy romance novella, "Cousins, One and All," which takes place partly in Penruddock. Or does it?
AVAILABLE NOW on AMAZON and BARNES&NOBLE
REVIEW
Released individually Henry has now compiled her fanciful tales into one collection The Flowers of Pendruddock: A Romance Collection. As a bonus, you get her special Jane Austen fanfic novella Cousins, One and All she collaborated with Aleksandra Layland. Each romance tale is emotionally unique and different on its own as they feature love at different stages of life. The sole connection these stories have is that each story takes place in a certain time period in the fantasy world of Pendruddock. Additionally, each heroine is named after a flower.
I personally read each novella individually as they were released. In the collection, they are placed in Pendruddock’s historical, chronological order. I fell in love with Henry’s writing style, and her sweet emotional romance tales she spun. I thrived on her innocent romantic tales that inevitably leave your smiling when you are done. If you are looking for a quick pick-me-up read Ronnda Eileen Henry the author to be.
My Rating ****(4 stars)
