I want to put Dr Alasdair Andrews in my pocket and carry him around with me. This man is too good and pure and naive for his own good. But patient. So very patient.
Which is exactly what is needed when dealing with Arabella Lovelock. She is the opposite of patient. And in her rush to grow up makes her life more difficult. She is honest to a fault about her own experiences, but doesn’t yet have the emotional intelligence to understand that others guard their hearts in a way that she doesn’t and to give some grace.
The reasons I didn’t give this 5 stars are that it took many chapters to bring these 2 together on page again. Work had to be put in to characterize Arabella’s downfall, and to bring Alasdair and Arabella back in to each other’s orbits since their first meeting 3 years prior. The second reason I didn’t give it 5 stars was Arabella. She was rash and unreasonable at times. It bothered me as the source of miscommunication between the couple.
Both characters were fully developed. And I thoroughly enjoyed seeing the other Lovelock characters play their parts in Arabella’s story.
