This was exactly the follow-up to The Captain's Midwinter Bride that we needed! I appreciated the time jump that allowed for independent growth and reflection for Beth, because it means we have a more mature character at the start of this sequel, and I was so desperate to finally understand Henry's mysterious and untimely disappearance years before. I love the tension in a well-executed second-chance romance, and the unresolved heartbreak and mutual pining made this tension palpable all the way through. I particularly enjoyed Beth's independence and the backdrop of her own flourishing - but relatively secret - career that lowers the stakes for marriage and enables a true love match. This was an excellent novella!
