Sooo, this was a book that Alcott wrote to try to help her family with some financial trouble. To bad for her, the book was too bold they didn't publish it in her time!
It was edited to be more boring and printed under the name "Fair Rosamond", but this version is supposed to be the first one in all it's "boldness" glory.
The main woman, Rosamond, is surprisingly bold and independently minded for that time I think. I had no qualms with her, and actually found the story pretty believable. She falls in love with Tempest, gets together with him, finds out some not-so-nice things about him and runs-and he keeps chasing her, over, and over, again. So at times, a little repetitive, but, kept me interested for the most part and was a refreshing read just because of the time it was written in caused it to be something different to read.
I am putting it on paperbackswap, however, instead of keeping it for myself.
