Publisher's Summary:
A unique spin on the romance genre from New York Times best-selling author Marion Chesney.
I am going to die, Polly thought. The crowd clamored for a speech. Polly raised her hands, and the crowd fell silent. From the foot of the gallows, she asked the spectators why she, a poor woman, should hang for theft while the abbess of Covent Garden could commit murder on the souls of innocent country girls over and over again and yet go free - and then she condemned them to hell.
Members Reviews:
Grim--not my favorite.
This was my least favorite book from this author. The heroine was not very likable and made stupid decisions every five seconds. Sex trafficking does not make a lighthearted read. I was glad when it was over.
My favorite series from this author are The School for Manners and The Poor Relation. Those were funny and lighthearted. This one was grim. If I wanted grim, I would not be reading this genre.
Fun but Loaded with Hero/Heroine Misunderstandings
The plot of Dancing on the Wind is a good one -- beautiful girl (Polly) abandoned at birth searches for answers and confronts self-serving villains along the way, also must deal with a well-intentioned but haughty love interest. I liked the rising action, the tension, and I thought the descriptions were fun. I get frustrated, though, with books in which the hero and heroine move along the tense, suspenseful path (prior to their happy union which we all hope is coming) and seem to constantly misunderstand one another. In this book I felt that the author went too far with this device. I also felt that Polly could have been made more likeable --- her morals seemed very malleable, even after a lot of important life-lessons.
An unlikeable heroine
I have read so many of Marion Chesney's books and loved every one, except this one.
I just couldn't warm to Polly. Her attraction to folly kept annoying me.
Because I just didn't like the main character, I found it hard to like the whole story.
Adequate but dark
Story is darker than her other books. Definitely not a lighthearted romance.
wonderful story
it was a great love story every one should read this book
s
also a great author i wii read more of her books
