I liked this even better than the first in the series! This one deepened the story of Persuasion by adding a multigenerational element and adding the [familial] love story between the protagonist and her mom. And that actually is just as important as or even more important than the primary romance story, although that is still good! I also appreciate that the Louisa subplot didn't carry out entirely faithfully to the original because that is truly so rough every time!
Graphic: Death of parent, Panic attacks/disorders, and Suicide
Moderate: Death of parent, Misogyny, Rape, Sexual assault, Abandonment, Alcoholism, and Blood
Minor: Confinement, Abortion, Infidelity, and Vomit
