This is a sweet romance, and a serious one at the same time. It discusses the topic of grief over the holidays. I liked that the author tackled that subject. I was not surprised by the ending but a bit disappointed. Then there was the epilogue which didn't surprise me either and elated me. However, in that epilogue the author hints at events a year after the ending......I want to read about that year and what happened between this couple. Did they write to each other? Did he go to visit her? How did the relationship help the couple to grow and mature in order to reach the point of the epilogue? I will say that I enjoy the gentleman of the couple. He started out bumbling but he was both sensitive and sensible where she was concerned. What more did he do once he knew her story of lost love? Did she come to a point where she realized it wasn't the lost love she was grieving but the future she thought they would have together? Did she realize that she wasn't betraying her old love by having a relationship with a new love? It is a nice read for the holidays. It demonstrates that love can live and grow again. I just wish there was more to the story that would answer the questions I have.
