Sweet is really the best word I can use to describe this book.The Christianity references in it didn't really bother me because that was the time period, but anyone hoping for a lot of high drama and romance shouldn't look here.  The description of the book seems a little misleading since the whole "she trapped me into marriage!" thing is resolved before we're more than halfway through the book.It's a sweet story about two people who fall into a sweet love before Thomas has to go away on a mission for Wellington (which he volunteered for when he thought Grace had trapped him) and Grace sweetly goes about her business on his estate and makes the lives of the villagers better.  Sweet sweet sweet.  You could kind of choke on the sweetness.  There's not a whole lot of conflict.  Grace never seems to get mad at him for how he treats her.  Like... I get that she understands why he's doing what he's doing, but that doesn't make it okay.  He's pretty awful at first.I def agree with the previous reviewer who said this was a book for younger girls; it's absolutely perfect for that.  A simple read with a nice message.  For 99 cents, it's okay.
