Reviews

[Teresa Bertolio · Rating 4 out of 5]

Most of this book was really good. There were a couple parts that are not for every reader, hence the lower rating. I did enjoy the characters and their interactions. Happy Reading.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Clarinda Howitt was more than willing to be her aunt’s put upon companion in order to give her sister a chance at happiness. Then she met James Quentin, finding her heart longing for more. Quentin is equally taken by Clarinda, but has another task to complete as well.

Adorable, sweet, and very lovely. I do rather wish this had been a much longer story as there was so more that could have been done, especially when you have two separate stories going on at once, even if they weave together. Despite the short format, Bennett’s characters are well-developed with real depth. 3.5 out of 5.
