Will you help create character descriptions for the new characters in this book?


Martha (marthag503) Morwenna Chynowith, Elizabeth's cousin, who becomes Geoffrey Charles' governess. She falls in love with Demelza's brother, Drake. George decides that she needs to get married to create further business alliances among prominent families and arranges for her to marry Osborne Whitworth, a clergyman.

Samuel and Drake Carne, Demelza's brothers. They come to live in the same town with Demelza and Ross for the purpose of setting up a Methodist church. Drake falls in love with Morwenna Chynowith.

Martha (marthag503) I finished last night (3 a.m.). I hope the same thing. I'm so glad these books have been written already. I would have hated to wait years to know the answer to questions about what happens to characters.

Sonia Koonce | 85 comments Just finished The Four Swans. The last two or three pages I am at a loss for words right now. How can two people that really love each other and belong together-----------------Ross and Demelza,--WHY


Trisha (meraanam) | 8 comments I just finished this book last night, and though it was way past my bed time I couldn't sleep because WHAT THE HECK! This was such a sad ending to the book. And I now officially detest Elizabeth, George, and this new scumbag Whitworth. Yeeeeecchhhh.

Sad indeed. I loved Aunt Agatha even more, though. Did you gasp?


Trisha (meraanam) | 8 comments Yes, Agatha had her revenge! I'm SO mad at George though.

Sonia Koonce | 85 comments I loved that part in the book where Aunt Agatha got back at George, he had it coming. Hope it will be in the Series. Also Ross sure shook up the servants when he saw how Agatha was being treated, put them in there place while George was away.


Trisha (meraanam) | 8 comments Yes, I liked that Aunt Agatha wasn't forgotten by everyone.

Sonia Koonce | 85 comments Trying to remember the books series 2 should be a great character Morwenna acting or it may go into series 3 also for Sam and Drake


Trisha (meraanam) | 8 comments Looking good!

I just found it so human and touching. It is a painful story, but so well written and the characters feel truly real to me.
