Another totally absorbing, don't-wanna-do-anything-else-but-read-this-book episode in the Dunham series. Jovan's books defy easy genre classification because they're so ambitious and far reaching. Yes, it's a (hot, oh yes) romance at heart, but more...a lot more. Jovan doesn't skimp or take short cuts on anything--her character's backstories, their flaws and failings, their hard-earned triumphs. Her people are soul searchers who never seem to take an easy path. Angst? Well, yes please.As in her earlier books (The Proviso and Stay), big business, politics, and the church provide a rich landscape for a riveting story that is essentially about people in all their glorious imperfection. People I've truly loved getting to know.Magdalene can be enjoyed as a standalone, but I bet you'll snap up the other two after finishing this one.I read an ARC provided by the author.
