Reviews

[JR · Rating 4 out of 5]

A convivial, pleasant story from Margaret Malcolm first published 1968, but with a late 1950s 'sweetness' vibe. I'm putting this title in the four star rating category because the hero particularly is likeable (he suffered from a stutter in his formative years and took to using his confident, handsome cousin as his front) and the tale itself relatively tightly written with no annoying loose ends stemming from the main or secondary plots.

In terms of comparable romance authors of same vintage, I'd think if you enjoy Mary Burchell or Mary Burchell then you're more than likely to find 'Star Dust' an appealing read.
