A review by rienne
At Last Comes Love by Mary Balogh

4.0

I reaaaally liked this, in part because I seem to have embraced this whole thing where media I consume seems to be coming for me to talk me through Feelingsgate 2018, through which I hope to organically come to the same realizations Duncan and Margaret come to in this book--the vulnerability and the joy of being able to receive love as readily as one gives it. I enjoyed that on a philosophical, emotional, and personal level, but I also really found the implausible plot to work for me--a little white lie that quickly spins out of control is something I easily see. And I liked that they were both "old." It felt... natural, even with the typical romance novel circumstances.

I also really like the constant presence of the rest of the family. Mary Balogh seems to be really good at looping that in naturally.
