Beauchamp Hall: An Uplifting Tale Of Adventure And Following Dreams From The Billion Copy Bestseller

by Danielle Steel

Inspired by the hit TV show Downton Abbey, Beauchamp Hall is an uplifting story of an ordinary woman embracing an extraordinary adventure, from the international number one bestseller Danielle Steel.

Winona Farmington once dreamed of graduating from college and moving away from her small Michigan hometown. Then real life got in the way, and now she’s in a dead-end job with a loser boyfriend.

As she comes to believe that perhaps dreams are meant for others, at least she can console herself by escaping into the world of Beauchamp Hall, a hugely popular British TV series set on a Norfolk estate in the 1920s.

When Winona is betrayed by both her boyfriend and best friend and loses her job, she feels that life can’t get much worse. So she impulsively buys a one-way ticket to the UK to visit the village where Beauchamp Hall is filmed. The colourful cast become her friends, and the behind-the-scenes affairs become a drama to match the show.

What happens next, as Winona takes the boldest step of all, reminds us never to settle for second best – and to always follow our dreams . . .

I fell in love with this setting, the feel of the story and the fact that it was very Downton Abbey-ish. I am a sucker for a main female character whose dreams come true. Poor Winnie had a horrible afternoon, her life completely changed in an afternoon so she binge watched her favorite show, Beauchamp Hall, after all watching this show was like comfort food to her. Then Winnie decides hey I have no real ties here and a bit of savings so why not go to England and see where my fave show is filmed.

What follows is a bit like a fairy-tale , with some ups and downs of course, for Winnie.

Winnie meets and interacts with many of her idols from the show. What I absolutely love about Danielle Steel's books is that they can be a bit like a fairy-tale escape for me and this just took me away to a place were dreams come true for Winnie. The story is not all wishes coming true and happy endings, Winnie needs to make things happen and work through a few relationship issues but still this book was a great escape.This review was originally posted on Fictional Blonde
