Ann was a bit too noble, and her family (especially Bunny) was a bit twee, but I still loved this book. You can always count on Susan Scarlett for escapist fluff. 😄

Hello, #FurrowedMiddlebrowClub pals! I haven't been online too much lately, but I did finish our May selection a few weeks ago.
At first, I thought that Scarlett's take on the Cinderella story might actually be *too* sweet for me and verge on saccharine, but I should've had some faith. I ended up being all about and finished the book with such a satisfied grin.

A charming Cinderella story, though I felt a little sorry for bad-girl Cora. Also, when Bunny fainted, I laughed, it was so melodramatic- which was I think not the intended reaction. 😂
Aesthetician Ann, from an impoverished but proud and upstanding middle class family, meets cute Sir Timothy. Will class differences hold back true love? If you‘ve ever read Susan Scarlett before, you know the answer. 😍
Beautician Ann is the perfect size to fit the ill and absent bridesmaid‘s gown at an aristocratic wedding and reluctantly steps in to fill the role. She meets the dashing best man (a Lord, natch) and sparks fly. This was a lovely little pre-WWII Harlequin Romance/Mills and Boon riff on a Cinderella story and I was down for all of it. 😆

Delightful! A sweet little romance, a lovely happy family and some beautiful clothes. Just what I've come to expect from Susan Scarlett. #FurrowedMiddlebrowClub

Happy Spring #FurrowedMiddlebrowClub members! May's choice is the tagged by club favorite Susan Scarlett, aka Noel Streatfield. Based on previous books by her, I expect a heroine we can root for and a baddie we can love to hate!
