Lovely cover! Browne does seem to luck out in her covers--they've been classy so far. Anyway, the story: Betsy was abandoned as a baby on the doorstep of a posh finishing school in London. (Quick side note: I really like the word posh--and of course, I'm a fan of Posh from Spice Girls--so I think I'm going to try and use that word in my vocabulary more.) It just happens that the couple that run the finishing couple don't have any children and are thrilled to adopt her. Betsy is very happy growing up at the finishing school, but after the death of her adopted mother, Betsy is asked to help run the school.The school needs quite a bit of updating, so Betsy's got her work cut out for her. There may also be a bit of romance and who's-my-real-mother-searchin sprinkled in, too. There's also quite a few cute little tips on being a lady spread in throughout the book, which made it a charming read.
All in all, it was a light read and didn't make me mad like her last book.
Rating: 7.5/10

Yeah, this one sounds a little better than the Little Lady - that one ended horribly!! I couldn't believe it! I totally dislike Jonathan..
Thanks for the review.
I'm glad you dislike Jonathan, too! I just wish there had been more Nelson all the way through the books.
