I'm a simple woman; I love to see a reserved, starchy hero become increasingly more unglued over the heroine as a book progresses. This book gave me exactly that. It delighted me how awkward Gavin and Emilia were.
I just wish it were a bit longer because with a little more relationship development and a slower burn this would have been perfect.

alisoun's review against another edition
5.0
Absolutely incredible. Erin Langston is, imo, the best romance writer I've read (possibly ever???). So well researched. So good at making me feel like I'm truly there - truly experiencing the cold weather, the tenseness of being a governess, the stress of Gavin's work. Particularly the setting of the place. The prequel novella also has that same feeling. I can basically feel the weather.
Now. Emelia and Gavin were two super sweeties. If you like them stressed and a bit too skinny - Gavin is for you. I appreciate a fairly normal dude as a hero. So does Emelia!
Contains:
two and two half spicy scenes. Fairly normal.
Nate Travers being a DILF
The first spicy scene is awkward and sweet!!!!!! Two virgins!!!!
Discussion about not having kids rn woooo but the epilogue ends with her pregnant.
