Explanation Toward Books The Bad Behavior of Belle Cantrell

Belle Cantrell felt guilty about killing her husband and she hated that. Feeling guilty, that is. A lady shouldn't do something she's going to feel guilty about later was a rule Belle kept firmly in mind.

Welcome to the world of beautiful, irrepressible Belle Cantrell, years before she becomes grandmother to Sissy LeBlanc of Loraine Despres' bestselling The Scandalous Summer of Sissy LeBlanc. It is 1920, prohibition is in full swing, women are clamoring for the vote -- and in the little town of Gentry, Louisiana, narrow-minded intolerance is on the rise. Sent to jail for swimming in an indecent bathing costume with a group of suffragists, Belle Cantrell knows her behavior broke the rules. But sometimes -- most of the time -- she has to twist the rules a little, because they all say the same thing: "Don't."

A sexy, sassy story of murder, adultery, romance, bigotry, and regular church attendance, with laugh-out-loud humor and a cast of zany, endearing characters you won't forget, The Bad Behavior of Belle Cantrell is a big comic love story . . . and much more.

Notice About Books The Bad Behavior of Belle Cantrell

The book was OK. Just OK.

After reading The Scandalous Summer of Sissy LeBlanc, I found this book about her grandmother, Belle. Each chapter starts with some Southern wisdom for women. Belle is widowed early in life and small town living and rumor mills circle her life as she is adjusting to being single and running the family farm. There is a lot about the womans right to vote and Ku Klux Klan which takes a different approach in their dealings. This time they target the Jewish members of the Gentry, LA community. Not

Bravo Belle who gave them hell!

It does speak lightly of a very dark subject but sometimes that's a great way to shine and remember dark times in an easier and approachable manner.

The first line of this book hooked me-Belle Cantrell felt guilty about killing her husband and she hated that. Feeling guilty, that is. A lady shouldn't do something she's going to feel guilty about later, was a rule Belle kept firmly in mind.And so begins your introduction to Belle Cantrell's Southern Woman's Primmer of Propriety which Belle teacches but doesn't always follow.It is set in the 1920's with prohibition in full swing and women are fighting for their right to vote.Its about a young

While I was reading this book, I thought a lot about my grandmothers. My maternal great, great grandmother Minnie, was a flapper who ran a "boarding house for gentlemen", whatever that is, after she kicked her drunk of a husband out of the house and divorced him. I am told she wore red lipstick and smoked, and probably didn't give a hoot what anyone thought of her. Her daughter, my great grandmother, Ruth, worked three jobs after her husband died, leaving her alone to raise five children during

There were so many things going on with this book that made it fantastic! It's a simple read - or listen - and it's packed full of history. Belle Cantrell's husband has finally come home from the war - WWI to be exact. She is very excited to see him and be intimate with him after two years. Things don't go quite as planned, however, after she finds a note from a French woman in one of his pockets and he dies at a poker game. A year later, 1920 I believe, she decides to cut her hair into a short
