I really enjoyed all of the Enlightenment series, and this was no exception. A second chance relationship with older characters is especially pleasing to me too!
I liked that the while the error that led to Kit's 'disinheritance' was mostly not Henry's fault, he did still see how he did hold done responsibility and that his failure to check this marked out his privilege. I also liked a lot the fact that the love he had for his wife and children wasn't diminished, and that the different types of love were respected.
Kit was a thoroughly adorable character, with great depths to him.
It was a romance that I felt worked much better now in their current situations, and if was very pleasing how Kit was now able to answer himself more, and Henry prepared to show his true feelings.
The side characters were also great fun to read and I'm hoping that they will appear in the future too.
A very enjoyable read that I will definitely be rereading a lot!
