Peggy By Request - it was okay

Done with Peggy. It was okay, but not as fabulous as some of the other novels. It took a looooong time to get to anything, and then I think the author actually missed some opportunity for buildup. Peggy and Noel had FUN times together when she was six and he was twenty-two! They should have at least reminisced about that and smiled together! But it was almost like two people met casually, liked each other and gradually fell in love in the normal course of things. There's some drama when disgraceful behavior on Noel's part is revealed, and Peggy reacts in a slightly unexpected way, which develops the characters-- but the solution, frankly, is pretty stupid and contrived, and so's the denouement. Peggy should have married Captain Turner, who loved her enough to fight for her! Nope, I wasn't overly impressed, and I'll just list it again on Ebay.
