Reviewed by Helen
I just spent the most fabulous weekend with this book and the wonderful characters that had me sighing and smiling throughout this story, Anne Gracie your stories rock they have everything that a romance reader wants in a story they are moving there are smiles and so much emotion from characters that become friends. Make yourself comfortable for this one because you are not going to want to put it down.
Lady Rose Rutherford is marrying a Duke, she is finally going to settle down and become a good Duchess, and she does not want love, a marriage of convenience is what she wants, but when the wedding of the season becomes the scandal of the season because some supposedly long lost husband arrives in rags to stop the wedding, lives are turned upside down. Rose is stunned when the man she fell in love with and married secretly four years ago and she thought was dead arrives.
Thomas Beresford married the woman he loved four years ago before leaving with the navy, he does not return and is listed as dead, but what happens to him has changed him forever, during his incarceration he never stopped thinking about Rose, dreaming of her kept him going and doing what he could to get home, and now he is here stopping her wedding to a Duke no less, but can he be the man he once was for his strong and caring Rose.
I am loving this series and Rose and Thomas’s story is awesome and so grand, to see these young lovers after all that they had been through bring that love that had never been forgotten back strong and more beautiful than before had me turning the pages. The descriptions of what Thomas had been through was heart-wrenching but his love for Rose kept him going and their reuniting was not always easy thanks to Rose’s brother Cal he did try to put a spanner in the works but Rose the ever strong woman that she was knew how much love she has for Thomas. Truly I loved this story from start to finish there are laughs and smiles and sighs along the way, MS Gracie never disappoints me and I am really looking forward to George’s story. Thank you for another keeper, truly don’t miss this story it is a must read.
