Someone to Trust

During a rare white Christmas at Brambledean Court, the widow Elizabeth, Lady Overfield, defies convention by falling in love with a younger man in the latest novel in the Westcott series.

After her husband's passing, Elizabeth Overfield decides she must enter into another suitable marriage. That, however, is the last thing on her mind when she meets Colin Handrich, Lord Hodges, at the Westcott Christmas house party. She simply enjoys his company as they listen to carolers on Christmas Eve, walk home from church together on Christmas morning, and engage in a spirited snowball fight in the afternoon.

Both are surprised when their sled topples them into a snowbank and they end up sharing an unexpected kiss. They know there is no question of any relationship between them, for she is nine years older than him.

They return to London the following Season, both committed to finding other more suitable matches. Still, they agree to share one waltz at each ball they attend. This innocuous agreement proves to be one that will topple their worlds, as each dance steadily ensnares them in a romance that forces the two to question what they are willing to sacrifice for love....

Good romance

Amazing narrator. Another great book in this series. I liked the slightly older woman dynamic.

Loved this!

Loved this older woman/younger man tale. They were soulmates from the earliest. So happy they gave in to their hearts and let love win.

Heartwarming

Elizabeth and Collin are both incredibly sweet characters and their romance makes for the most heartwarming one in this series.

enjoyed but....

as with the previous books in the series the author repeats explanations about characters over and over. Ugh! is there a word quota? But the story is good just takes forever to get there. Good narration.

Sweet story

This series is so among to listen to. Wonderful stories of love and family! Can't wait until the next one.
