The Substitute Bride - Review
Five Blue Ribbons from Romance Junkies, www.romancejunkies.com
"Margaret Blake's novel The Substitute Bride brings a unique flair to historical storylines that readers will relish. Bess and Edward don't exactly seem like an ideal couple at first, but it soon becomes obvious that they balance each other out perfectly. Bess's naivety and inner strength in the face of Edward's stringent attitude provide plenty of memorable scenes to keep you imersed in the story. I really empathised with Bess as she agonised over what Edward's reaction would be if he were ever to find out about the deception. Now if you're wondering about Beth's sister's real story, well you'll just have to pick up a copy to find out the story behind her "fear" of marriage.
Snippet
"At her older sisters insistence Elizabeth Mary agrees to take her sister's place as the Substitute Bride for Lord Hinchcliffe;. He's never seen either of the sisters so he wouldn't know he's being deceived. Lord help them all if he finds out because Edward abhors liars above all else!"

Congratulations on another excellent review, Margaret! I'm so pleased for you!
I must admit I'm not surprised, though. I have never read one of your stories that I haven't loved. Apparently others feel the same way!
Hope you are doing well. :)
Thanks, Sarita, kind of you to say that.
Loved this book and am glad the reviewer did as well.
Great review Margaret and congratulations!
