3 of 5 starsMajor Harry Wescott has had a hard life of late, first losing his title and fortune because of his father's bigamy and then being grievously wounded in the war, but while he's been content at a family estate, something is missing--someone to cherish. Lydia Tavernor, a widow of the late vicar, has been living a quiet life in the small village after her husband's death. When Harry walks Lydia home a few times, the beginning of attraction begins to for. Lydia does not want to give up her newfound freedom and while Harry understands her position, he can't completely ignore her. Can these two damaged souls find peace, love and happiness together?
I haven't read any of the previous books in the series so I was a little lost with all of the characters that are introduced so quickly. There was too much info dump and lots of exposition that while a little interesting I thought took away from Harry and Lydia. I began skipping paragraphs and pages just to get back to Harry and Lydia. There is no great plot twists and turns in the story, just a sweet slow burn romance between two damaged souls.
I voluntarily read the advanced reader copy and all opinions are my own.
