This is a nice short and sweet historical romance, and it's a nice way to spend a cozy, fall evening. The characters, story, and setting are sweet, and I loved almost everything about ths book. I could have done without the brief profanity and sex scene, but thankfully both were short! I love strong women, and Milly is definitely that. And Joseph is the typical Victorian gentleman who is down on his luck. Although the story was short and developed faster than I might have liked, it was nice. I would love to read more from this author.I always find Victorian England a nice escape in ths day and age. While I know that illicit actions were still a part of the culture, they were veiled. And morals were still alive back then. In fact, I loved Milly's response as things blossomed between Milly and Joseph. And I'm glad to know that marriage is expected--much nicer than just living together! While the end is expected (no spoilers, but I bet you can guess the ending), it is still nice!I was sent a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. I was not financially compensated, and all opinions are 100 percent mine.
