Even though this is a quick read I gave it five stars because it really satisfied everything I could want in a sweet romance. Just enough drama, just enough emotional turmoil, just enough insecurity, just enough pain and regret, just enough of self-awareness. Although the main characters Elizabeth and Anthony met and agreed to a sham courtship, I loved how they were always their true selves. As the courtship continued and they got to know each other better their friendship blossomed. Anyone with eyes could see how compatible they were. Slowly Anthony started to recognize the difference between his “true love” and Elizabeth. There was no comparison. It is also interesting that in the beginning all Elizabeth wanted was to pursue her music career without marriage that she felt was a hindrance. So, the plan was Anthony to win back his first love Diana and Elizabeth to be courted to stave off others so she could concentrate on her own plans. No one ever expected them to fall in love. When Diana returned to Anthony’s life it caused unfortunate changes between him and Elizabeth. But in the end, I admired how Anthony dealt the blow to Diana that he no longer loved her but loved another. BAM!!! It was great and quite satisfying. The extended epilogue gave me great delight to read. It just ten years and chronicles Elizabeth’s, her sister’s and their parent’s loving relationships and children. It was wonderful to read. I highly recommend this. It has all the good feels of a sweet and loving book.
This a beautiful story of pain, heartbreak and finding true happiness in the one person you least expect. Elizabeth want to continue her pursuit of music, and Anthony wants the woman he’s been pursuing for six years to come back to him. They hatch a plan and begin a courtship to bring Diana back and for her to gain her independence. What happens is that they both introduce each other to a new way of looking at the world. Their courtship is well written and the feelings they experience as they traverse the dangerous course their hearts begin to take.
INCREDIBLY DELIGHTFUL!!!
