Chronicle To Books The Girl in the Gatehouse

Miss Mariah Aubrey, banished after a scandal, hides herself away in a long-abandoned gatehouse on the far edge of a distant relative's estate. There, she supports herself and her loyal servant the only way she knows how--by writing novels in secret.

Captain Matthew Bryant, returning to England successful and wealthy after the Napoleonic wars, leases an impressive estate from a cash-poor nobleman, determined to show the society beauty who once rejected him what a colossal mistake she made. When he discovers an old gatehouse on the property, he is immediately intrigued by its striking young inhabitant and sets out to uncover her identity, and her past. But the more he learns about her, the more he realizes he must distance himself. Falling in love with an outcast would ruin his well-laid plans.

The old gatehouse holds secrets of its own. Can Mariah and Captain Bryant uncover them before the cunning heir to the estate buries them forever?

Judge Of Books The Girl in the Gatehouse

I cannot trust my friend to ever give me book suggestions again. If I ever hear her refer or compare this to Austen I shall slap her face with a salmon.

I have a standard "No Christian fiction" policy that stems from the general irritation I feel when a story is going along swimmingly and then all of a sudden it's like you're in Sunday School - and I hate Sunday School. One minute you're reading about a mystery, the next the main character is pontificating on things like mercy and salvation. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a complete pagan, and I get that these are good things. I just don't like them in books. They feel wrong somehow, too out in the

(Alert - some spoilers)I picked up a paper bound copy through my local library without realizing the author's obsession with Jane Austen. Anyone who has ever read Austen's work notices just how many phrases and ideas from Persuasion was used heavily along with Mansfield Park.Persuasion:Naval Captain comes back looking to reclaim the love who was persuaded he wasn't good enoughRents a large house to impress herHas a friend with a limp from the navy (Capt.

I have loved all of Julie Klassen's books; however, "The Girl in the Gatehouse" is one of my favorites! I liked this one nearly as much as her first book, "The Lady of Milkweed Manor." As a huge Regency and Jane Austen, I loved the parallels between this story and Austen's tales--both through names, characters, and plot similarities. Yet, I enjoyed Klassen's ability to make the story original and her added touches with poorhouse and the Navy. I also loved that the main character, along with

I had read good things about Julie Klassen's inspirational regencies so I sought this book out. It started out well. The setting of a young woman in "exile" because of misbehavior and a romance with a sea captain promised a good riff on Jane Austen's themes. However, Ms. Klassen can't hold a candle to Austen when it comes to creating believable characters and witty dialogue. I could have seen past the dialogue problem--who besides Georgette Heyer has come close?--but the clumsy plotting was just

I'm not sure what took me so long to discover Julie Klassen, but I am loving all of her books. "The Girl in the Gatehouse" was one of the most satisfying books I have read in a long time. The simplicity of the times, the beauty of the setting, the depth of the characters and the mystery of the circumstances weave together to make a magnificent tapestry that compose this book. I love the way Julie presents a situation - young woman wrapped in scandel gets sent away from her family to live alone
