Open House

12/09/03

By Jill Mansell

Somewhat boring Jill Mansell book, orginally published in 95, which once again confirms my theory that the good woman Jill is improving with age – rather like a good bottle of red wine ;o)

Review from amazon.co.uk:
Nell O’Driscoll’s known Marcus Kilburton for years – according to her diary, she even had a crush on him as a teenager. When he decides to open Kilburton Castle to the public, Nell takes a job as his assistant – and soon sparks are flying between them. But is Nell free to pursue Marcus, when a figure from her past refuses to let go? Meanwhile, Nell’s best friend, Hetty Brewster, has other problems. Her husband has abandoned her for a bitchy but successful writer. Now the press is full of stories about the frumpy, boring wife losing out to a younger, slimmer model. But Hetty’s about to get her chance for sweet revenge – if she can stop being a nice person long enough to take it!

My rating: **
