I must admit I wasn’t 100% sure where An Offer From A Gentleman was going when I first started it. I was a bit worried it might just be a reimagining of Cinderella, and after the first two being such nice original stories, that seemed like a bit of a let down. But to my relief, An Offer From A Gentleman does become its own story. I do love a forbidden romance trope, or maybe more accurately for this novel, a frowned upon one, but the love prevails in spite of those obstacles. I love when a man decides that the love and connection he feels for a woman is more important than that of social expectations.
