Another great JQ novel. There was quite a bit of falsehood in this book. But along the way Edward and Cecilia fell in love.

Another Julia Quinn book down and another love story I enjoyed.
This was great! I really enjoyed the characters and I loved the plot, reminded me a lot of While You Were Sleeping, which is a great movie and one of my favorites.
I went into this with no expectations and was very happy to find out I enjoyed it as much as I did.
Will be reading the rest of the series and more of Julia Quinn’s books!

Cecilia is searching for her injured brother, but finds his best friend in the hospital instead. She is determined to help at least one soldier so she settles in to help Edward recover. When she is turned away for not being family she tells a little white lie that snowballs into a full blown situation. Since Edward is in a coma what harm can it do to claim to be his wife. I loved the main characters. Cecilia has no one but her brother so desperate actions were taken to try and find him. She is a very good nurse maid to Edward and she cares about him. The more lies she has to tell, the more guilt she feels. This was never part of the plan. Edward looks forward to the letters his best friend gets from his sister Cecilia. Eventually he starts adding his own messages to her in Thomas' letters. When he wakes up from his coma he recognizes Cecilia despite his memory loss. He assumes he must have married her at Thomas' request. I love Edward's character. He is the perfect gentleman until he isn't. Cecilia is a strong female who is dealt a bad hand and takes it upon herself to fix it. Loved this story. Great read!
Cecilia travels across the ocean to aid her brother Thomas in getting well, only to find he’s missing. But his best friend Edward is injured, so Cecilia poses as his wife to nurse him back to health.
When he wakes up he doesn’t remember getting married, but accepts what he’s told. His name brings power to help find Thomas, but once their hopes are dashed, she has to come clean.
But, since they finally consummated their sham marriage, she’s worried about being pregnant, so she vows to leave if she’s not.
Edward remembers everything, and though he waits for her to confess, he realizes at the last minute that she’d rather leave him so he’s not obligated to wed her.
Interesting story in old world New York. I love Edward and his efforts to help Cecilia, even as she helps him get well.
