I loved the book till chapter 18. The beginning is a little dry but I like that Francesa's first husband wasn't demonized and thought the book handled windowing and unrequited love beautifully. After the last few books, it was a welcomed improvement. Colin has a personally again that has nothing to do with food! Michael has so much personality too and I think he's my favorite male romantic lead in this series. Violet and Francesca talk about their husbands and how their situations contrast and compare helping in her healing process. So many good parts to this book and I don't mind the dubious consent but it just drags the ending of the book and feels repetitive. Oh and poor reivers.
