Caught and trapped into marrying one sister, forced to become the matchmaker of the sister he slowly falls in love with; What is a scandalous rogue supposed to do?!!Oh this was such a sweetly romantic story! I was surprised at the religious undertones, I normally don't read clean romances. It has definitely opened me up to read more.
Strong heroines are my favorite things!! Lucinda might have been the "ugly duckling" in her family but she knew just who she was and who she wanted to be. She came into her own in this book and I firmly believe that one comment from James was the catalyst! Sometimes people need a positive push in the right direction and James tells her he likes it when she stands up for herself, it gives Lucinda that push.
James is a good-natured rogue, he has harmless flirtations and never expects to get caught. Emily, Lucinda's ditzy, almost slutty, younger sister follows him to a seedy bar and end up engaged to him. James is enlisted by their father to find Lucinda a husband because she has to marry first because she is the oldest. James of course does his duty but along the way finds that he made the wrong choice in sisters...
This was slow paced at first but it worked out because I was able to really get to know these characters. I was tempted to but the book down after the first chapter but so very thankful I didn't. This story filled my heart with hope. As I understand it now, this is the 3rd book in the Love's Grace Series. There is no problem reading it alone, although I'm going to go back and read the first 2 books!
