Knowing that, I tried to give a little leeway with the story, because every writer evolves as time goes on and I feel JQ has definitely evolved.Īlthough 1994 is hardly considered ‘old school’ I do feel a lot of old school elements still existed in many of the novels published at that time. In 2006 JQ pulled it out of the rejection pile, polished it up, and published it. For those of you who aren’t aware, this book was written in 1994, but never published. About a year ago I burned myself out on historicals and I’ve read very few since then. It’s been years since I read anything by Julia Quinn. The Secret Diaries of Miss Miranda Cheever by Julia Quinn is the first book in the Bevelstoke series, and also the first book Quinn ever wrote. But Miranda has never forgotten the truth she set down on paper all those years earlier-and she will not allow the love that is her destiny to slip lightly through her fingers. She is as intriguing as the viscount boldly predicted on that memorable day-while he is a lonely, bitter man, crushed by a devastating loss. And even at ten, Miranda knew she would love him forever.īut the years that followed were as cruel to Turner as they were kind to Miranda. And even at ten, Miranda learned to accept the expectations society held for her-until the afternoon when Nigel Bevelstoke, the handsome and dashing Viscount Turner, solemnly kissed her hand and promised her that one day she would grow into herself, that one day she would be as beautiful as she already was smart.
