Damsel in Distress
Damsel in Distress | Carola Dunn
7 posts | 8 read | 2 to read
It's Spring 1923 and love is in bloom as the Honourable Phillip Petrie finds himself totally smitten with Miss Gloria Arbuckle, daughter of an American millionaire. But before the enthusiastic suitor can pop the question, his beloved is abducted by kidnappers. As Gloria's distraught father begins assembling the ransom, Phillip enlists his childhood friend, the Honourable Daisy Dalrymple to help him recover his missing sweetheart. Strictly forbidden to contact the police, Daisy must resist the temptation to bring her occasional collaborator Scotland Yard's Detective Chief Inspector Alec Fletcher into the case. But as she closes in on the abductors' rural hideway, she begins to suspect that Gloria isn't the only fair damsel whose life hangs in the balance...

Mehso-so

This is the first Daisy Dalrymple book I‘ve listened to on #audiobook and I don‘t know if that has anything to do with it, but I didn‘t particularly enjoy this one. It‘s not terrible, just seems a bit far-fetched and focuses too much on characters I don‘t care much about. But I‘m happy to see Daisy & Alec‘s relationship progress, I think they‘re super cute together. Hoping the next book will be better. 3⭐️

I am thinking of bailing on this one. I like this series but the kidnapping of a key series character (not a spoiler, already on the back blurb) does not really fit the light-hearted mood for me.

I got impatient after buying this book on bookdepository.com and went and bought it on my kobo as well.Waiting was never my talent. Oh well, now I'll have a pretty copy for my shelf & a copy to read in waiting rooms. Bk5 in the Daisy Dalrymple series is lots of fun,Phillip Petrie has given up asking Daisy to marry him & has fallen head over heels for an American heiress.When she gets kidnapped, he rushes straight to Daisy for help. #daisysdarlings

TheLondonBookworm I think that's the best way to do it ☺️☺️ 8y
Lizpixie @TheLondonBookworm of course you need favourite books in multiple formats! Doesn't everyone have their book in hardback, paperback, ebook & audiobook?🤔 8y
TheLondonBookworm @Lizpixie I was under the impression that that was just standard procedure 😍😍😂😂😂 8y
