Loved Maggie and the Count of Monte Cristo vibes. Didn't appreciate St. Clare. 10 years is a very long time to wait.
The writing ✍️ was strong, but I couldn't get lost in the romance feels. Too much abandonment and betrayal, and not enough... I don't know groveling? Penance? I feel the story would have been more compelling if he would have waited as well.
Reread this to get ready for book 3 in the series.
