Matilda's Wedding is one of the few books in the canon with a long ending, a proper courtship and wedding. I love A Dream Came True, but it lost because we don't get to see much of the hero's perspective, do we?

Tough one, because I hadn’t read Henrietta’s Own Castle in a long time. — Well, meanwhile, I have refreshed my memory. Instinct was right, as it so often is. I do prefer chopping wood at the cottage at Wester Ross. <br /><br />Matilda’s Wedding vs. Only By Chance — or, Flu vs. Flu — Argh! <br />What can I say, the flu won. 😃 And the kitten rescue. And the lovely hero. And this Henrietta.<br /><br />The last one is easy. As much as I like Mary Jane — hey, wait! I do hate her being so mean to Fabian! — she doesn’t stand a chance against Aunt Jemima’s 🥞 pancake mix and maple syrup — er, I mean Jemima’s 🍞 bread and porridge. Thank heaven for the Aga! 😊<br />Betty Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15517346001348814015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-931981138747432610.post-38739001775053484562017-06-21T07:54:08.514-07:002017-06-21T07:54:08.514-07:00Henrietta's Own Castle
