My Review - 4 of 5 stars -
This was an intriguing story with lots of secrets, gossip, and underhandedness while Cordelia and Alexander discover more about each other. I loved Cordelia's independence, intelligence, and caring heart. She was loyal to her sisters. Alexander was very set in his ways until a conversation with Cordelia had him rethinking his stance. It took a while before either would admit to feelings, and sneaky events pushed them apart. I had tears at the end as they expressed their true feelings. I did feel that there was too much description at times as well as, I felt, too much reiteration on Alexander's old stance on issues and how they would affect the situation they were in.
I received a copy through Booksprout, and this is my unsolicited review.
