A likeable enough read about rich people and Chinese mothers with sharp tongues. Now, rich people gossip I loved. Eden was my favourite character, the girl next door, living on the estate but growing up with the earls children a doctor but regarded as not worthy to marry the Earls son Rufus by his mother. She lives with her doctor father. In comparison to the spoilt behaviours of others, she seems unaffected, down to earth a balanced, just all-around nice person. It's a lovely gossipy read and the ending concluded nicely for me wrapped up in a wonderful bow.
