A Happy Meeting The Best Of Betty Neels

Rating:
Summary: I Loved This book.
Review: I agree with the other reviewer that this is a wonderful Cinderella type of romance story and no one writes a better Cinderella romance than Betty Neels! The book is about this young English lady named Cressida Preece and she has a nasty step-mother who treats her like dirt but than Cress meets a handsome Prince-Charming in the form of Dutch doctor Aldrik Van der Linus and he falls for Cress and sets out to give her the happy life that she deserves! There are two characters named Tyco and Charity Van der Brons who are friends of Aldrik and they first appeared in an earlier Betty Neels book called the Final Touch and I wish I had known that before I read this book as I would have read it first and than I would have read A Happy Meeting but anyway I did really love this book and I recommend it but just make sure you read A Final Touch first and than A Happy Meeting! I haven't read A Final Touch yet but since every one of Betty Neels books that I have read so far has been great I'm sure it will be great too!

Summary: Nobody does Cinderella better than Betty Neels !
Review: This is one of my very favorite Betty Neels books ! Not only does Cressida Preece have a deliciously wicked stepmother, but there is a wonderfully malevolent woman who has set her cap after Prince Charming, the eminent Dutch doctor Aldrik van der Linus, and carries out her mischief with a real gargoyle of an Aunt ! It is all very engaging and rewarding reading. As if the other characters were not enough, you have a good witch very ably masquerading as the doctor's lovely grandmother :) and you get to fondly visit with old friends Tyco and Charity van der Brons from Ms. Neels previous book, The Final Touch. Cressida and Aldrik are so perfect for each other that you can, with little worry, lean back and savor the story that brings them to their happily ever after.
This book is truly enchanting read !
