Reviews
"Ashford's latest flawlessly written love story is a quietly compelling tale... The author's ability to create truly memorable characters while getting all the historical domestic details exactly right ensures that romance readers picky about authenticity will be well rewarded" -- Booklist
"Marvelous...the perfect blend of interesting, emotionally complex, and open-hearted protagonists ... In a story of personal growth and excited rediscovery, both characters must overcome scorn and opposition from their family and colleagues in order to come into themselves, appreciate each other, and turn a naïvely arranged marriage into a passionate partnership." STARRED REVIEW" -- Publishers Weekly
"This is a book that I flew through with great pleasure. I have no problem recommending this book to anyone." -- Night Owl Reviews
"Well written with a nice overview of the workings of the Foreign Office in the 1800s, Ashford's tale of young newlyweds parted and reunited after nearly two years engages readers' emotions. This is a touching, heart-warming story." -- RT Book Reviews, 4 Stars
