Review: Intrigue and romance
Rating: 5 out of 5

POPULAR PLACE aspires to the true ideal of romance.  Usually, I don't care for first person writing but the excerpt for Ellen Butler's book grabbed my attention. The POV is extremely well done so that the use of "I" and "me" is not intrusive at all. Likewise, the mechanics of storytelling are also handled with deft skill. I got swept up and kept reading because I needed to know more about what would happen next with Cara and her mysterious tenant. The romance behind the mystery just kept me reading. I was right with the heroine every step of the way and by the end of the story, I'd fallen in love with the hero too.
