So we picked this book up after hearing that Mary Balogh loved it. It couldn’t be bad if Mary Balogh says its good… and wow – what a book! Rich in history, espionage, humour and a delightful developing romance, this had us riveted. If you love Liz Carlyle, Mary Balogh and Elizabeth Thornton, discover the Secret History of the Pink Carnation.
Eloise Kelly is a Harvard grad student who’s looking for answers to one of history’s many mysteries, but finds something even better.
Nothing ever goes right for Eloise. The day she wears her new suede boots, it rains. When the subway stops short, she's the one thrown into some stranger's lap. And she's had her share of misfortune in the way of love. So, after deciding that romantic heroes must be a thing of the past, Eloise is ready for a fresh start.
Setting off for England, Eloise is determined to finish her dissertation on two spies, the Scarlet Pimpernel and the Purple Gentian. But what she discovers is something historians have missed: the secret history of the Pink Carnation, the most elusive spy of all time. As she works to unmask this obscure spy, Eloise has more and more questions. Like, how did the Pink Carnation save England from Napoleon? What became of the Scarlet Pimpernel and the Purple Gentian? And will Eloise Kelly escape her bad luck and find a living, breathing hero of her own? |
