Lady Jennifer Arden, who is unable to walk due a childhood illness, and Ben Ellis, the born-out-of-wedlock son of the Earl of Stratton, have long avoided one another for fear of offending the other regarding their circumstances. Though loved and accepted, they have both always felt like outsiders. When, at a gathering of family and friends, Ben and Jenny finally have a chance to become better acquainted, they realize that neither is in need of pity nor panacea. Together, they help each other accept that they are worthy of, and able to attain, more than they ever imagined. In the third installment of her “Ravenswood” series (after
Remember Me), Balogh invokes immersive, engaging detail to craft a compelling, character-driven Regency romance. High-emotion and low-heat, the story is a touching tale of casting aside expectations and taking destiny into one’s own hands. As ever, the series’ intricate interpersonal relationships will leave readers anticipating further Ravenswood romances.
VERDICT This book will appeal to those seeking a heartwarming historical romance about overcoming obstacles and realizing one’s true worth. Recommended for fans of Sophie Irwin, Stephanie Laurens, and Eloisa James.
