It can be hard to feel like a novella tells a complete story, but each of these authors seem to have accomplished the nearly impossible in this collection! Each novella had such fully developed characters and plot; and I loved the continuity between the stories as well!

Thank you to Netgalley for this ARC. All thoughts and opinions are my own!

This is a beautiful collection of three stories, all with the backdrop of a beautiful castle. Each story is captivating from start to finish. The characters were well-developed; complex, and intriguing. I highly recommend this stunning collection.. Many thanks to the authors, publisher, and NetGalley for the advanced copy of the book.

this was a really well done collection of stories, I enjoyed each story going on and loved the fact that they connected so well with each other. I loved getting to know the women in this and their story going on. Each author does a great job in telling the story that was needed to and look forward to another book like this.

"A habit of hers, Tobias was learning rather quickly, was her disregard for personal distance. Very un-British-like. It did, however, afford him a close-up of her eyes. One brown and one blue. One more unique feature in the makeup of this unusual woman."
