Keeping the Castle

by Patrice Kindl

A book as frothy and fizzy and light as a champagne cocktail—think I Capture the Castle meets Pride and Prejudice!

Seventeen-year-old Althea Crowley must change her ways. She is far too honest with her many suitors and has ruined several chances for marriage. Why is her marital status so problematic? She must marry well (and soon) in order to support her family and their crumbling home, Crawley Castle.

Of course, there will be obstacles for this young woman. Things start to look up for Althea when the appealing Lord Boring moves nearby. The attraction is mutual, and Althea’s hopes are raised. Unfortunately, things are not as they seem with Boring.

Can Althea find true love and financial support? Is Lord Boring the one? Read this delightful novel for young people and find out!
