I have to be dragged into domestic dramas that are going to rip my heart apart, but the positive reviews left me hopeful that it would be worth it.  While it was a bit hard to get into for me, in part due to the writing style, the plot drove me forward, the characters drew me in, and indeed, and finished the last few pages in tears.  I cried for Duchess and Robin, for Walk and Martha May, for Vincent, and even for Darke.  This is not a light story, but it is a gripping one.  So much happens.  And in the end, I think these characters will stay with me for a long time.
