      The Courage To Be Happy

      Feb 1, 2023

      MARRIAGE and columns have this in common: you tend to repeat yourself. More than once in these pages, I have quoted the New Yorker’s legendary film critic Pauline Kael. After President Nixon’s landslide victory in 1972 she wrote: ‘I live in a rather

      Honestly, probably my least favorite Stephanie Laurens book. I don't know why I didn't like it as much as her other books, but there it is; I don't think I'll re-read it.
    • 5/5
      Something I really like about Stephanie Laurens books are that her female characters are never flighty or cowardly. Antonia, her female lead here, is portrayed as very astute and knows her own mind. Her pursuit of Philip is enjoyable as is the fun watching him turn the tables and pursue her.A rather tame book when compared to Laurens Cynster novels yet very enjoyable for me all the same.
