Review: Ross takes us from tragedy to romance beautifully
Rating: 4 out of 5

I loved this book because it bridges the gap between literary fiction and the typical romance novel. The plot, beginning the Portia's heartbreaking loss of her husband and unborn child, takes this romance novel to a new level as someone begins sending her cruel and very unwelcomed gifts as reminders of her terrible loss. As Portia begins to rediscover romance in Brock, a charming and lovable character, I was not only drawn in by how fantastically romantic and loving their relationship was but by the mystery of who was sending the gifts to someone who has suffered so much. As someone who has dealt heavily with loss, it was refreshing to see a character so deserving allowed to seek and find happiness again. A romantic and page-turning book that is well written and offers more than just a love story but a story about loss and the struggle to move on after tragedy strikes.
