Mary Balogh never disappoints, and this is an outstanding entry in her Westcott family series. The hero and heroine are in their forties with grown children, so older than usual romance genre main characters. But that only means their story is rich in experience and complicated backgrounds. And because this is the fourth series entry, plenty of younger characters, both family and friends, from the previous books play a large part in the narrative. This novel is highly recommended, and I look forward to what comes next.

Nobody does a better job at writing Victorian fiction than Mary Balogh! I really enjoyed this story of Viola and Marcel - older than the usual characters in historical fiction. Reconnecting after many years they find a second chance at love. Fun

Great story! This is the fourth book in the Westcott series. I've enjoyed all of them.
