Omschrijving

'Aunt Crete's Emancipation' follows Miss Lucretia Ward or 'Crete' to her family, as she navigates life with her rude sister Carrie and her spoilt niece Luella.

Carrie and Luella shun the 'backwoods' cousin but Crete welcomes him with loving and open arms, changing everyone's lives forever. If you love Cinderella this story is perfect for you, it is a loving and relaxed read, full of brilliant characters and description, where goodness is satisfyingly rewarded and evil punished.
