1659 - Charles II; The Restoration

The bleak years of Cromwell's Protectorate are drawing to a close. Civil war and its aftermath have left Morland Place in bad case, but with the return of the king, Ralph, the master, believes he can rebuild its fortunes. For his beautiful and ambitious cousin Annunciata it means a journey to London where, embroiled in the amours and intrigues of Charles's Court, she makes her fortune and at last unlocks the secret of her past. A kinder age is dawning, but still uncertainty, conflict and sorrow await both Ralph and Annunciata before they can find peace and forgiveness.

Judge Regarding Books The Black Pearl (Morland Dynasty #5)

4.5/5It's been more than 18 months since I read the last Morland book and I have no idea why. I think this is my favourite so far, not only because of the focus on Charles II but also because of more appearances by Prince Rupert of Rhine.

With Cromwell dead, there is hope for a restoration of the monarchy, and an upswing in the fortunes of the Morland family, who are both Royalists and Catholics. However, when Charles II returns, not all the news is good, since some of the property supporters lost cannot be returned. Young Kit Morland has always dreamt of marrying his cousin Annunciata, but she is an heiress, and he is landless. Annunciata instead is sent to London, to join the court and becomes a favorite with the royal family,

Another good read about the Morlands. I am really enjoying this series about England's upper class through the centuries. Thanks to Komet for listing this series as favorites.

This is the fifth book in the series. The series is still holding my interest and this one covers the Restoration. I enjoy the strong female characters as well as the interesting ways she brings the family into British history.

I liked that this book was a bit more focused than the previous one in the series. I became much more attached to the characters here, especially Annunciata. It made it easier to read as well - I didn't have to keep checking the family tree every couple of chapters. This story begins during the Cromwell years and continues into the restoration of Charles II and the return of the court. Near the end we briefly meet Samuel Pepys and this ends with news of the Great Fire.

This installment in the Morland Dynasty family series takes place during the Restoration and Charles II's reign. The main character in this one is Annunciata Morland, Ruth Morland's illegitimate daughter. (no spoilers here, but you can find out who her father is in the previous installment, The Oak Apple!) The Plague strikes during this book, and of course there is rampant death/destruction. This book reminds me of an old favorite, Forever Amber, which was also set in this timeframe. I really
