Great book. I would’ve liked for both love stories (especially Livia’s) to not be so rushed.

👩‍🎓 There are a lot of Kleypas PhD’s out there, and I am but a humble student. So, I will just say that this was, surprisingly, my favorite Kleypas book to date. While it has less external plot than some of her other books, I found it possibly even more engaging. Kleypas does a masterful job bringing us along the characters’ journey as they navigate love lost and found, through their emotional turmoil, without ever weighing the book down with too much angst. (I did not die a Sherry Thomas death here, if you know what I mean.)⁣

⁣

🙋🏻‍♀️ I wonder what other Kleypas fans think of this standalone? It feels very different than The Wallflowers. ⁣

All I can say is thank god for the secondary romance in this, as I think I would have DNFed it otherwise. I think the McKenna and Aline romance would work for fans of Wuthering Heights (from which its obviously inspired), but since I am famously a hater, I did not like this. I didn't buy any of their relationship (also not a fan of childhood friends to lovers), and I found their treatment of each other to be incredibly callous. Gabriel and Livia, however, were a delight and I wish the focus had been more on them.

Some unnecessary slowings of the pace, but otherwise the almost Wuthering Heights retelling I needed. And thankfully no babylogue.
