Summary: Absolutely delightful
Review: Being the only sane member of a the Mad Herringtons isn't an easy job but Ditie accepts her role as the responsible sister gracefully. At least until she is engaged to Frederick and the family attends his house party. As the story unfolds, Ditie, short for Aphrodite, longs for the inner freedom to exhibit the wild abandon of her other family members; to have the courage to stand up and tell the whole world exactly what's in her heart.
The Mad Herringtons is absolutely delightful. If you haven't read it, you're missing a wonderful, entertaining read that will grab your heart and soul and keep them in its clutches until the very last word.

Summary: Mad About the Herringtons!
Review: It's a great story - I thoroughly enjoyed it. The heroine, Aphrodite, Diti for short,is the only "responsible" one in a crazy family - 13 children with #14 on the way. All people of passion except for Diti. She almost gets engaged to a dull young man who dotes on his monster of a mother. Diti and her sisters go to the dull Frederick's estate for two weeks to see if he and Diti "suit". The outlandish Warwick, a distant relative, is there too. He hates to see the lovely Diti in such a mismatch, especially since he fancies her himself. A great read with lots of fun, based on A Midsummer's Night Dream.

Summary: Thoroughly Entertaining
Review: What a delightful story! I didn't want to put it down - even after I finished it. The heroine, Aphrodite, loves her family in spite of the fact they're ruled by their passions. In her experience, passion only leads to heartbreak and she's determined to not let it rule her life. That puts her in the position of being 'sensible' and as such, her family looks to Aphrodite to help them get out of trouble when one of their mad escapades blows up in their faces. Aphrodite doesn't mind helping her family--much--but she wants a family and home of her own and a nice 'sensible' man to share her life with. After staid Frederick asks for her hand, Aphrodite and her family attend a house party at his country estate--primarily to see if Freddie and she will be a good match. Unfortunately, his mother, a harridan if one ever existed, is there and soon Freddie's cousin, Viscount Thomas Warwick, arrives. Warwick is a rogue's rogue and Aphrodite finds herself more and more tempted by him in spite of all her good intentions.
