Summary

Jean Webster's novel 'Dear Enemy' is a classic work of fiction that delves into the complexities of societal norms and individual growth. Written in a charming and witty epistolary style, the book captures the essence of early 20th-century America while addressing timeless themes of love, friendship, and personal development. Set in a New York orphanage, the story follows the correspondence between the protagonist, Sallie McBride, and the orphanage's new director as they navigate challenges and forge unlikely connections. Webster's attention to detail and insightful character portrayals make 'Dear Enemy' a captivating read for literary enthusiasts of all ages. Jean Webster, a prolific American author and social activist, drew from her own experiences to write 'Dear Enemy'. As an advocate for women's rights and education, Webster infused her writing with progressive ideas and a keen understanding of human nature. Her strong voice and narrative skill shine through in this poignant and thought-provoking novel. I highly recommend 'Dear Enemy' to readers seeking a heartwarming yet thought-provoking read that offers valuable insights into human relationships and societal expectations. Jean Webster's timeless tale is sure to captivate and inspire readers of all backgrounds.

    What happens when the Prince of Wales falls in love with the prime minister? 
My boring life working in an insurance call center in sunny California just took an unexpected turn. Thanks to my misbehaving relatives, I’ve leaped from obscurity to royalty as the new heir to the British throne. 
But my welcome in England is about as warm as the weather. I arrive to discover a country horrified at the thought of an American version of Prince Charming and ready to revolt against the monarchy. I vow to my grandmother, the queen, that I will do everything possible to help her save the crown. 
Unfortunately, royal life isn’t easy. From bewildering traditions, traitorous friends, and malevolent swans, the only thing I’m succeeding in is providing entertainment for the tabloids and social media trolls. 
And then the broodingly handsome prime minister, Oliver Hartwell, bursts into my life. 
With his meteoric rise from poverty to the most powerful man in the country, Oliver understands my current plight. Innocent messages of support turn into late-night chats—and unexpected feelings. 
But there’s one major problem. The royal family must remain politically neutral at all times. 
So how can I keep my promise to save the monarchy when I’m falling in love with the prime minister? 
A forbidden romance filled with humor and drama featuring a bumbling Prince of Wales and a stern yet dashing prime minister, with a love that could transform a nation.
