We have a Rake, a wager, a widow, a secret, blackmail, a tryst, confused feelings, and puppies and Christmas; together they make a wonderful story. Eustace has been living his life to get back at his father- to show him he can do whatever he wants. What he does not realize is that it has been a pretty empty life. Along comes Grace and she shows him that there is more to life and he wants some of it. Grace is a widow who has not really lead much of a life either, but she has unplumbed depths and passion. But she refuses to be left behind by a rake so she takes the upper hand and leaves him. Eustace decides he needs to break through her defenses and fight for the life he now knows he wants.This is a warm, charming and briskly paced story. Ms Walker is new to me; I am looking forward to reading more of her work.I received an advanced reader copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
