Rhoda Broughton (1840 - 1920) was a Welsh novelist and short story writer. Her early novels earned her a reputation for sensationalism which caused her later and stronger work to be neglected by serious critics, though she was described as a queen of the circulating libraries. ...Have you ever been to Wales? I do not ask this question of any one in particular; I merely address it to the universal British public, or, rather, to such member or members of the same as shall be wise enough to sit down and read the ensuing true and moving love story-true as the loves of wicked Abelard and Heloise, moving as those of good Paul and Virginia. Probably those wise ones will be very few; numerable by tens, or even units: they will, I may very safely aver, not form the bulk of the nation.

Every Christmas the young Marlows leap over twelve lighted candles: "If you clear them all, you will be lucky all the year; if you put out any one, you will be unlucky in that month of the year to which it corresponds; if you put out the first, you will be unlucky in January, the second in February, and so on." When her turn comes to leap Gillian extinguishes three candles and it soon becomes clear that a year of grief and misfortune is about to unfold inexorably before her... "What!" cries her uncle, dropping knife and fork with a clatter on his plate; "what! do you mean to say," in an astounded voice, "that you - you have made up your mind to - to take him after all?" "I have not the chance," she answers, with a pallid smile; "he will not take me. He says" - making herself repeat his words with accurate distinctness - "he says that he would rather be flayed alive than marry me!" "God bless my soul!" cries the Squire, bounding off his chair and on to his short legs, and utterly forsaking his stiffening bacon and his cooling egg. "He thought," continues the girl, in the same carefully distinct voice, "that I should be too dear a bargain, even though backed by my £200,000." About the Author Rhoda Broughton (29 November 1840 - 5 June 1920) was a novelist and short story writer. Her sophisticated tales were hugely popular and widely read at the turn of the 19th Century.

With nothing but grudging hospitality standing between her and homeless destitution and an inheritance of "drink on both sides, immorality on both sides, selfishness on both sides, extravagance and folly on both sides," beautiful, engaging and utterly incorrigible Bonnybell Ransome is a force to be reckoned with... "The kind of love I should like to inspire," continued Miss Ransome, forgetting to kick the snow as she had been doing with childish pleasure, "is the nice quiet sort that would look after me, and keep disagreeable things and people away from me, and never expect anything beyond; but" - with pensive regret, yet not the slightest hesitation - "that is just the kind I never get; what I am offered is always the other - the horrid sort." He wished he could stop her, but nothing came to him in time to arrest the still more embarrassing revelation that followed. "I am going to tell you something that will make you laugh," she said in a tone of frank and gently mirthful confidence. "Do you know that when first I knew you, I thought that, of course, you would be like all the rest! I was afraid to be left alone in the room with you!" She ended with a glance at him of expectant enjoyment of his enjoyment of the joke. Exhilaration was not quite the leading characteristic of his half-strangled answer. "May I ask how soon you were undeceived?" About the author Rhoda Broughton (29 November 1840 - 5 June 1920) was a novelist and short story writer.
