Just Good

I throughly enjoyed it. It was just the right amount of everything, romance, sex, emotional healing, maturing etc.

Good addition to the series

Without reading the first 2 books in this series, I doubt I would have liked this book very much. Knowing the history of the H/H from the previous stories made me interested in reading their HEA. The narrator is not one of my favorites, but not awful either. The narrator made the hero sound even more petulant than he is. Eager to read the story of Jo and her secret love interest next.

Cute but the first 2 were better

A nice enough story, I cute ending but oh my gods did it take forever to really get going. Probably the weakest of the 3 audiobooks in the series as the others were fabulous but still a fine book to pass the time with while you're working on something else.

Very different approach

Sometimes we get so used to the Victorian romance formula that we shy away from relationship repair stories. This was very well done, and the characters developed in a realistic way. Some might find this a slower moving story as it is full of introspection. I’ve been critical of stories with too much of this before… so perhaps I was more introspective during this listen.

Loved it.

I really loved Eliza’s story and this is the second story I read. I absolutely love this series!
