![]() ![]() With most historical romance novels, one can usually tell how the book will end. And the depths of emotions of the main characters are such that I don't think you'll miss them. I like steamy scenes, but they are not a deal breaker for me. I think the author prefers that the characters have their privacy. If you happen to be looking for the hot and heavy steamy scenes, you won't find them here. She even tried to overcome these weaknesses. She actually had a moral compass as well as some faults. This heroine's interests were not about women's rights and she did not balk at the conventions of the day in every chapter. The heroine had a good intuition (didn't do stupid things most of us would never do). Also, potential romances abound (the most important part!) and they have their own twists and turns. The whole story isn't spent trying to solve one mystery. ![]() ![]() I suppose this book could be called a mystery but it's different in that as soon as the twist and turns and questions come up, they are answered fairly soon. It's really difficult for me to go into the plot without giving anything away, so I won't. It reminds me a bit of Flowers from the Storm by Laura Kinsale in its drama and seriousness but it was not quite as deep or emotional. ![]() While I enjoyed my first listen, the Pembroke Park one, it came no where near the caliber of Lady Maybe. Loved this story! This was my second story by this author. ![]()
