This is a sweet, heartwarming Regency romance. Five years ago, the only man Emma has ever loved left her and moved to the Continent with no explanation, causing a scandal that left Emma banned from society with no prospects for the future. For five years she has not heard a word from him, and has accepted her fate as a spinster. Now, suddenly, Henry is back in England following his father's death, and pursuing her with the same ardour he did before he left. Emma is having none of it, however. Even though she still loves Henry, she is afraid to trust him again for fear of another heartbreak. Her defences begin to crumble, though, with Henry's continued advances and tenderness. Could it be he is sincere after all?It seems there are some people who do not want to see this couple together, however, and just when it looks like they may finally get their relationship back on track, something happens that threatens to tear them apart for good. Will Henry fight for the woman he loves this time, or will he let Fate dictate his future?Well written, with believable characters that are easy to identify with, I found this a very enjoyable read.
