Publisher Description

Everyone seems to think lovely, wealthy Rose Campbell should get married. Everyone, that is, except Rose.

In this sequel to Eight Cousins, Rose returns to the Aunt Hill after two years of traveling around the world. Suddenly, she is surrounded by male admirers. But before she marries anyone, Rose is determined to establish herself as an independent young woman. To begin with, she is learning that riches do not bring happiness in themselves. She is also beginning to suspect that some of her friends like her more for her money than for herself. With the support of her family, Rose sets out to untie the complications of young womanhood.

"I thought it was interesting comparing how this book made me feel when I was in my young teens to how it makes me feel now as a young adult. After you've experienced young puppy love and a more mature love it brings a whole new appreciation for the story. "

    " I read this book for a 5th grade book report...and found it totally enchanting although I do not remember any of the story now, just the pleasure I took in reading it. I think that means it's time for a re-read. I'll put that on my list for 2011! "

    " As always, the characters were lovable and good moral character abounds. This book was more drawn out in parts than it needed to be. Definitely some interesting twists with, or course, a happy ending. "
