Harlequin House, by Margery Sharp

 I read Something Light by this wonderful author earlier this year, so I immediately bought more of her books, Harlequin House being one.

Like the first book, HH concerns a young lady and her attempts to settle down. This one also includes a widower, a man of honor (honour?) who wants to protect his new friend. The protagonist's brother is a ne'er-do-well, who can't seem to get a break. (No worries; all's fixed up in the end.) Let's not forget the fiance, off on an attache mission to the Middle East. 

Fear not, dear reader(s), it all ends up nicely. Not for one character, granted, but the reader doesn't get too attached to him, so it's okay. 

So, I'm 2 for 2 on Margery Sharp books. Still 2 more on my shelf. Can't wait!
