My Review - 5 of 5 stars -
I enjoyed the friendship of Emma and Charles. She stuck to duty for her sisters even though she did not want to. Flowers were her true passion. Because of an overly ardent suitor, she made a bargain with Charles. He was not looking for a wife as he was getting used to life outside the military. Surprises changed his circumstances, changing the bargain. I loved Charles and how much he preferred honesty and was willing to listen to Emma about everything. He was very much a gentleman before things changed. I thoroughly enjoyed their riding outings, their conversations when they found moments, and watching their feelings blossom. A wonderful story.
I received an ARC, and this is my unsolicited review.
