The Ladies of Ivy Cottage (Tales From Ivy Hill, Bk 2)

This is more village saga mixed with budding or very slow burning romantic relationships a la Jane Austen. As in the first installment, some characters get their happy endings while others are left hanging until the sequel. To fully appreciate the villagers, you should read the first book otherwise you might find it difficult sorting out the various connections. Lots of amiable ladies and interesting challenges, but everyone was tiptoeing around each other, making it a drawn-out and tad frustrating narrative. 3.5 stars.
