Third Culpepper

I love these stories about these girls, This one has some surprises that will keep you guessing till the very end, This is the latest installment of the Conundrums of the Misses Culpepper series, All three books are quite enjoyable, but I honestly think that this one was my favorite,

Alex Hawksworth is a rector who prefers the social life of the ton to that of his quiet parish, Though poor as a church mouse, he takes every opportunity to escape his life, He's been in love with Brette Culpepper as long as he's known her, but what sort of life would she have as the wife of a poor rector He wants more for her than he can give her.

silly and cute historical romance.
The H was wonderful, the misunderstandings surprisingly not too annoying, and the resolution sweet,

The H really sold this one, He wasn't a rake at all and was just a sincere and steadfast, He was a little clueless in the romance department but made up for it in his devotion to the h, The drama was a little more complicated than the other stories of this series but made for a more interesting story, Overall this was a nice piece of brain cotton candy, Brette Culpepper is petite, beautiful, and kind hearted, She enjoys the whirlwind of society and loves matchmaking, The problem is she is not very good at the matchmaking part, Alex Hawksworth, who was once a rake and is now a rector, is absolutely head over heels in love with Brette,

And now, to each his own conundrum, As she prepares for what she is sure to be exile in the country due to her latest matchmaking attempt gone astray, Brette receives news that her father has just died and left her an inheritance.
This is quite a surprise, since she and her sisters thought their father was already dead, It turns out that she may very well be the illegitimate daughter of her aunt and an actor who was also the second son of a duke who was more famous for his smelly feet than anything her ever did.
At the same time, Alex discovers that his cousin, the earl, and his son have been killed in a fire and he is now Earl of Wycombe.
Thats wonderful, or would be if he wasnt accused of causing the death of the old earl and his son,

Our hero and heroine need to find the truth of their situations, As they work to solve these problems, they fall even more deeply in love, Just as they are working through the last of their doubts about marriage, more news arrives, This time its a good news, bad news scenario that creates one last conundrum, This one, happily, is easy to solve,

Brette is another delightful story by Collette Cameron, The characters are realistic and loveable, at least most of them, Within the story are splashes of humor, mystery, and surprise, I enjoy Stevie Zimmermans narration, Her rendition of this book was quite entertaining, I especially like her portrayal of Brette, She makes her sound like the cute little imp she is supposed to be, Brette: Intentions Gone Astray Conundrums of the Misses Culpepper Bookby Collette Cameron is at times a humorous and compelling Regency Romance, While, Book, it can be read as a stand alone, I'd suggest reading the other two books in this fantastic series, I feel you would benefit from reading them to get the full benefits from "Brette", there are some events, situations, and revelations revealed, that could spoil your entertainment, by not reading the other two books in this series, first, although, not necessary to enjoy "Brette".

ed by: AprilR I enjoyed Brette's story and I'm gland she found Hawk, they seem like a great pair and I hope to see more of them in future books about the Culpeppers.
.

Out of three cousins I've read about I liked Brette the least, In the beginning she was made out to be a bit shallow knowitall and drama queen, I didn't expect that considering her aspirations later in the book, They didn't coincide with the image portrayed in the beginning, I liked Alexander well enough even with his illthought proposals, he was a nice man that was spared the life of man of the cloth.
The mystery of the earl and his heir's deaths were not solved so that was a bit of a downer, Plus what irked me the most was the fact that the topic of Brette's illegitimacy was discussed in such a place where servants could hear and with no taking any precautions thus making sure the rumor will be well spread.
The whole situation smacked of made up drama, It didn't feel like a natural occurrence,

I liked all the characters from previous books, the high society censure and how the family was dealing with it, The machinations and well placed barbs by young ladies kept me well entertained, The ending was a bit anticlimactic, It was just statement of facts as they happened, and this book had no steam at all, Just saying. I am curious about the twin sisters though, So we will see. A fun historical romp romance, where a spirited heroine finally captures the heart of her hero, I love how Alex just couldn't get why Brette kept turning him down, A fun cast of characters with plenty of intrigue to keep one interested in the story, Fun story!

This story is so worth the read, It's a quick story. There is plot twists, fun charismatic characters, and of course puppies, I love the story of Alex and Brett finding their happily ever after, A wonderful book! Brettes discovery concerning her parentage certainly threw her off balance, but not enough to contain her determination, her humour or her love for Alexander Hawkesworth, Rector.
Nor did it dissuade Alex's love and desire for Brette, Things are never as they seem though, A sudden and tragic reversal in Alex's fortunes, making him the Earl of Wycombe now makes it possible for him to marry Brette if she'll have him.
Which she won't. Never would she wish him to be tied to a byblow! While that wouldn't change his mind, there is also the charge of murder against him someone claiming he killed the Earl and his heir to get the title for himself.
There are twists and turns, love always, nightmares and dreams, I can't say much more or I'd give the whole thing away, Suffice it to say, it was an enthralling story, full of everything that makes Ms, Cameron's work so special. Her books are always captivating and make you yearn for more, Thank you Collette for another masterpiece, Hero: Alex/Hawk Heroine: Brette
Reading Enjoyment:,I enjoyed reading this fun and witty short story that is well written with charismatic characters, and was an exciting/ tantalizing story, Very intriguing and entertaining was I started it could not put it down, This story has a very happy and satisfying HEA!! What could the Culpepper Misses get into now With Collette Cameron's witty sense of humor and the Culpepper's penchant for getting into mishaps one can only imagine what troubles Brette finds.
However, I wasn't prepared for the bombshell that threatens everything Brette thought she knew,

I admired the strength and straightforwardness with which Brette handles her situation not so much the way she handles Alexander Hawksworth and their mutual feelings.
But I do have to hand it to Alex, "Hawk", in his determination to prove to Brette they belong together and the way he handled his grandmother BRAVO!.


Ms. Cameron continues to come up with delightful ways to torment her characters and grab her readers attention keeping them glued to the story from start to finish.
