With This Kiss: Part One by Eloisa James
4.0
I rated this 4 stars years ago and that rating holds. This, much like ROMANCING MISTER BRIDGERTON (also about a girl in love with a family friend for years before he wises up), hits all my buttons.
I understand that feeling of being in the shadow of a sibling more sparkling, more vivacious, more EVERYTHING that folks love. I got teary-eyed through much of this not just because I felt how keenly Grace tried to not be brought down.
I have vague recollections of the two books that form the parents' romances of Colin and Grace, but this was definitely more of case of not needing that backstory.
By the end Colin realizes his mistake...as Grace realizes life needs to be lived outside your head.
