My Review:
The Captain's Daughter is all love story and tragedy and it is okay by me. A great way to spend a hot summers day under a shade tree reading all about London. When I was a young girl I just knew that London was cold and foggy all the time mostly because of all the movies I watched that took place in London. So for me a book like this on a hot day is just perfect!
The Captain's Daughter is about a young woman by the name of Rosalyn Bernay, that has found herself in the need of money and rather quickly. She finds a job in the theater which is a place that she feels quite at home because she has a talent all her own. She becomes fascinated with all the talent there.
What fiction story would be perfect without some love and romance? That's where Nate comes into the picture. He is in the regiment and it is something he takes very seriously. He is recovering from an injury and wants to get back at it as soon as possible. He is very anxious to get out of London but soon fate steps in to change his plans because he meets the lovely Rosalyn Bernay. After meeting this beautiful woman, she has him second guessing everything.
A sweet lovely romance set in London in the late 1800's. Perfect read for the beach!
