My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This empowering romance, set in the days when specific roles governed each gender in their respective positions, is punctuated with touching and tender arousal scenes. I was swept into the plot by the author’s masterful writing. I couldn’t wait to see how a naïve young woman could handle the thrusts and parries of social life, and blend into her sham role of the new wife to a wealthy husband.
Virginia Taylor balanced the emotional and practical needs of both collaborators by showing how love conquers all when partners are equal in every way bar one, namely: social standing. The plot kept me engrossed to the satisfying conclusion.
