It was a fine, sweet story but lacked the internal coherence that makes a romance satisfying; too much of the deus ex machina, plus I knew HOW the declaration would happen from chapter 3.

(Also, a terrible cover & title for this particular book.)

AliBG However, I loved that Maxwell avoided giving the duke a "magic penis" that cured the heroine of infertility. As half of an infertile couple, that particular trope drives me crazy. 8y

This is a romance where both characters are admirable, honourable, and accomplished. The characters have been through a lot and are determined to thrive no matter what life throws at them. They could each be successful on their own, but they find that sharing a life is much better. Cathy Maxwell gave me all the feels here! #romantsy

This final installment of the series was much anticipated by me. Gavin, Duke of Baynton, has been a favorite character throughout. #bookblogger #romantsy #romance #historical
