Hell Hath No Fury Kindle Edition
Hazel Ann Mitchell and Florence Slater would never be friends, but when a roll of the dice brought Henry Bell into town, the two women become rivals. Hazel Ann wants to be surrounded by love in the town she grew up in, a community where her family has deep roots. Florence, the only child of the wealthiest man in town, wants to preserve her standing in the town and her family name. She also longs to be loved for herself, and not just her money. Henry believes if you aren't getting richer, you are getting poorer. With no regrets, he cuts corners to get what he wants.
Courtship, marriage, divorce, small town politics, a scandalous court case, and everyone eventually learns Hell Hath No Fury.
Set in the first decade of the twentieth century in a small town in Western Pennsylvania, this story could take place anywhere.

About the author

As a child, I loved reading historical fiction. Writers pulled me into the past through the lives of people who lived then, and the stories made me want to learn more.
When I taught, I tried to put a human face into my lessons—after all, history is a story, his story, her story, our story. One of my dreams was to teach local history through the people, including the homes they built and/or lived in. I planned to end the unit with a party and have each student come in costume as a figure in local history—a person they had researched for themselves. It never happened, but I envisioned them looking at events in American and even world history through the eyes of a real person who lived in their community.
No longer standing in front of a classroom, I still have the desire to share stories of the past with people, and there are stories everywhere. A family legend said my grandfather met my grandmother while she was demonstrating sheet music at the local Five and Dime. Great story. Then my aunt, before she died, told me she and my uncle made the story up. If the tale isn’t true, how did the two from different towns meet?
In my books, I might take a real historical figure such as Adele of Blois or some event or place, such as in Hell Hath No Fury, and create a narrative for others to enjoy. Currently, I am working on another book set in the early twentieth century in Western Pennsylvania—the working title is Whiskey Run. Some of the events in the book will have been inspired by actual happenings, but most are a product of my imagination.
And for a change of pace, I am working on a YA fantasy, and perhaps the story of three witches, the Weird Sisters, Wanda, Winifred, and Zelda, as they recount the almost true story of their lives.

- Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2021The author quickly engages the reader with life in a small rural PA town in 1903 where the ambitions of its leading citizen and the pretensions of his family lead to jealousies, deceit, and unexpected alliances. The story hurtles forward, driven by the charming and handsome flimflam man who takes advantage of nearly everyone he meets and is at the heart of the drama. The book is hard to put down as emotional conflicts arise and romances, betrayal, and divorce ensue. Hell Hath No Fury is the compelling and elegantly told story of two strong women who are rivals, at odds with one another, yet share a fate. A recommended read.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2021This story drew me in from the first chapter and was impossible to put down until I had reached the very satisfying conclusion. The author has done solid research on the United States in the first years of the 1900s and accurately portrays life in a small gossipy town. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys well written historical fiction.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 5, 2021Two women fall for a ne'er-do-well who lives by rolling dice.
When Henry Bell comes to town he sets his sights on the wealthy Florence Slater, hoping to cash in. But Hazel Ann Mitchell catches his eye. What could go wrong?
Set in the early 1900s, this story of scandal and politics could happen today.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 11, 2021A handsome con man rides into a small western Pennsylvania town in the early 1900's looking for an opportunity. As he scopes out the possibilities, he settles on the daughter of the wealthy mill owner who controls every aspect of life in the village. But, when he strokes the cheek of a pretty, young seventeen-year-old shop girl, the gossip begins.
Great character development, along with plot twists and turns, draws you in to a book that you can't put down.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2021Great story, drew me in and kept me reading. The characters were very real. Loved the unexpected ending.
