I was not at all sure what to expect from this book, but it was a very good surprise. It is well written and the story line pulls you in right away. The characters are well developed and attractive, and the author does a good job of keeping everything going at a good space. The manipulation and social rules were almost a bit too much, but it was the turn of the century after all.  The twist at the very end- I'm still not sure how I feel about it. I do have to say I didn't like Ben's travel journals too much, not because of what they said, but how they said it- too wordy for a guy, too personal for  his character to be publishing them. Other than that, a lovely romantic historic novel!
