From the first page I was gripped by the characters. The couple's strengths and weaknesses fit together so well, in ways that you would not expect at first. Seeing them both overcome their insecurities and grow together was so beautiful. I also appreciated that they had real problems that they had to work through in order to be together, and that they were so good at communicating with one another about them (not just the misunderstanding trope over and over again). I really believed that they were each other's Person by the end of the book.
I also appreciate that the author did not let the time period rob any of the women of being badasses. All of the supporting characters were so delightful that I am excited to read the rest of the books in the series to delve into new pairings.
Honestly it was everything I could ask for in a historical romance.

- Colin and Minerva 4EVER. No, seriously, the only reason I started with this series and in this first book was because of their story which is book 2.
- That's it lol
- The main leads 🙄 for a lot of reasons. I did not feel the chemistry at all nor was I rooting for them.
- No plot? This random dude along with his clan suddenly finds themselves in this quaint village called Spindle Cove. Then he bumps into our heroine and it involved some unnecessary groping as a meet-cute. And then from there, the plot just went bonkers.
- It got boring except for Colin and Minerva.
- Also, insta-lust. Ughhh, along with insta-love, these two are my biggest pet peeves.
