Abby’s superb writing will keep you thirsting for more of this love story.
Highly recommend.
I really liked this book about Nicholas and Margaret. Once again the problems between them develop because they don’t talk to each other. I was really hoping Lord Clarke would get together with Lady Richmond. I like the potential of a possible relationship between Percy and Emilia. Augusta was a perfect villain! I loved the HEA. I would have liked a little more in the extended epilogue. I recommend this book.

A beautiful love that almost wasn’t!
This was a very entertaining story. I loved most of the characters and they were very lovable. All except one. The terrible step mother.
Margaret’s father is very ill. He is concerned for her well being if he should die. To be sure she is taken care of he agrees to let his wife, Augusta, take care of finding a husband for his daughter. However, she has always been a terribly mean person to Margaret.
Augusta plans for Margaret to marry her nephew Percy. Although Margaret knows of the plans to marry Percy, she meets a nice man. Augusta wants her plans to take hold and makes a mess out of Margatet’s life.
What a situation to be in. Wanting to please you dying father’s wish or find the love of your life. You don’t love the man he picks out so he helps and gives you time to find that one. But one of the problems with that is even when he falls for you too their are others who want and do cause you problems. Are these two strong enough to overcome all of that? Very well written and engaging. I recommend it. I received a review copy and voluntarily review it.
A very enjoyable read,that kept me reading and pulled into the novel. I loved the characters and the roles that they played. A very good novel.
