When flu came suddenly on to their lands and she took over the responsibilities of his estate to spare the sick bailiff, not to mention when her children’s beloved nurse died, she should have written to him and informed him of what was going on – it was irresponsible not to! There was another problem with this story – towards the end I couldn’t understand Lord Winn’s lack of anger at something Roxanna did. She makes us laugh at them and shake our heads as we see the now dear characters making mistakes that their natures made inevitable from the very beginning. The characters themselves were wonderful as usual, sketched so heartwarming a manner that you almost got used to their many small habits and began expecting them through their later interactions.Ĭarla Kelly rejoices in human faults and follies. There are sections in this book that slow down the pace of the book considerably, and those are the parts that I must complain about the loudest. Drew Plays Her Hand is a very good book, but it’s simply less good than the three others I’ve read by the same author recently. Unfortunately, as I’m going through Ms Kelly’s works most of them are getting 4 stars from me, which (as I grow in reviewing experience) is no longer a very common thing from me. The trouble with giving this one 3 stars is that I know I’m lowering it to the level of other books I’ve given the same score to.
