The two main distinguishing characteristics between the books are<br /><br />1) The Reluctant Heiress takes place in Austria and the main girl works in the theater, while Countess Below Stairs takes place in England (but there are a lot of Russian characters) and the main girl works as a servant in a manor house<br /><br />2) In Reluctant Heiress, the male love interest is more of a main character, while in Countess Below Stairs the love interest is kinda just in the background<br /><br />So I think it all just comes down to personal preference. It seems like from what I've heard, people generally prefer Countess Below Stairs--for what that's worth :)Karen L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15308879061927532232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4939144455618519194.post-72510470697173351982012-03-08T08:12:55.237-07:002012-03-08T08:12:55.237-07:00This sounds like exactly my kind of read.

If they're essentially the same (good) book.TGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17832981435264804886noreply@blogger.com
