The First Rebellion
The First Rebellion | M.C. Beaton
3 posts | 3 read | 2 to read
The first book in M.C. Beaton's charming Waverly Women trilogy. His kiss has left her flushed and disconcerted - perhaps men are best avoided after all! The Earl of Tredair has had his fill of balls, routs, and silly misses, and he despairs of finding anyone out of the ordinary - that is, until he meets Miss Fanny Waverley. Most unique and intriguing, she and her two sisters are the adopted daughters of the reclusive bluestocking Madame Waverley. They have been raised as her disciples to spread the word of women's rights and to encourage poor oppressed females to stand up against the iniquities of the male sex. But, can they resist love? The beautiful Miss Fanny finds it quite hard to think of all men as cruel and lustful beasts - how can she, when now she finds herself longing to kiss one of the most hated of the species! 'Romance fans are in for a treat' - Booklist '[M. C. Beaton] is the best of the Regency writers' - Kirkus Reviews

In order to really get into the spirit of #Swoonathon, I binge read this series over the weekend. The First Rebellion kicks of the story of the Waverly sisters- three young ladies who were adopted and raised by a widow of wealth and a champion of women's rights, who is against the girls every marrying. So of course Fanny falls for a dashing Earl. There's also a mystery throughout the series as the ladies try to discover their roots.

My current audiobook for #Swoonathon. I always love a regency romance by Marion Chesney (aka M C Beaton). @kimmypete1

This is part one of The Waverly Women trilogy by M.C Beaton.
Normally this isn't the kind of book i go for as it is based very much just on romance but i thoroughly enjoyed this title and would be more than happy to read them again! I also liked the fact they were written based in a time when chaperones were a must for ladies!
This book made me smile very much!
I would recommend these books for those that enjoy uncomplicated, loyal love stories!
