3 of 5 starsNicholas, Marquis of Pennington, has his ordered life upended when he fulfills a promise to his dying friend and becomes ward to his friend's two young children while helping to supporting the oldest daughter Caroline through her first Season. Caroline at first thinks Nicholas arrogant and aloof and she's not sure he's the best person to take care of her two younger siblings. It's not until she spends some time with him and the children at Nicholas's country seat that she begins to see him in a different life. Nicholas, on the other hand, is struggling trying to balance running his estate and taking care of Bella and Jeremy.
This was a cute story with the major part of it focused on Nicholas and how he changes and realizes he does want to marry and have a family. He can't imagine his life without Caroline, but it takes him to the 95% mark to declare his feelings. The villain in the story is pretty predictable and rather stupid. There's not much action in the story, but more a slow-burn sweet romance between Nicholas and Caroline.
