Book Review: Surprise! Another Success for Eva Ibbotson
Summary: 5 Stars
Eva Ibbotson has done it again! Just when I think I may be disappointed in her, because you never know when an author will exhaust their repertoire, I'm pleasantly surprised. Yet another story of pure devotion, history, twists and turns, and another reason to burn the midnight oil. I love her ability to describe a place so that I can say I've been to Vienna and England. My only disappointment is that I can't meet her and beg her to write more, plus I have so many questions. I highly recommend this book!
Summary of The Morning Gift
Twenty-year-old Ruth Berger is desperate. The daughter of a Jewish-Austrian professor, she was supposed to have escaped Vienna before the Nazis marched into the city. Yet the plan went completely wrong, and while her family and fianc? are waiting for her in safety, Ruth is stuck in Vienna with no way to escape. Then she encounters her father?s younger college professor, the dashing British paleontologist Quin Sommerville. Together, they strike a bargain: a marriage of convenience, to be annulled as soon as they return to safety. But dissolving the marriage proves to be more difficult than either of them thought?not the least because of the undeniable attraction Quin and Ruth share. To make matters worse, Ruth is enrolled in Quin?s university, in his very classes. Can their secret survive, or will circumstances destroy their love?Europe Books
