Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly feature of the Breaking the Spine blog. It's a great way to share information about forthcoming books with other readers.
This week's anticipated book:
Publisher: St. Martin's Press
Publication date: April 1, 2014
From barnesandnoble.com: Set in Edwardian England, this
sweeping story of secrets and lies, honor and betrayal, and love at all
costs from blockbuster bestselling author Barbara Taylor Bradford is one
that no reader will soon forget…
Cavendon Hall is home to two
families, the aristocratic Inghams and the Swanns who serve them.
Charles Ingham, the Sixth Earl of Mowbray, lives there with his wife,
Felicity, and their six children. Walter Swann, the premier male of the
Swann family, is valet to the earl. His wife, Alice, a clever seamstress
who is in charge of the countess’s wardrobe, also makes clothes for the
four Ingham daughters. For centuries, these two families have lived
side-by-side, beneath the backdrop of the imposing stately home in
Yorkshire.
Lady Daphne, the most beautiful of the earl’s daughters, is about to be
presented at court when a devastating event changes her life and
threatens the Ingham name. With World War I looming, both families will
find themselves tested in ways they never thought possible. Loyalties
will be challenged and betrayals will be set into motion. In this time
of uncertainty, one thing is sure: these two families will never be the
same again…
My thoughts: I am jumping up and down waiting for this novel from one of my all-time favorite authors, set in my favorite historical time and locale.
Which book are you waiting for?
Enjoy life with books . . .
