Review: Good but too short.

The characters and plot of this book have such promise but it ended too quickly. I like the way they met many years ago and how they both matured and developed into adults with individual life experiences. I can see it taking on twists and turns that would have made a great full length novel. Miss Dunaway is a strong woman in her late twenties which is refreshing compared to the other younger heroines of other regency/victoria romance novels. She was never described as beautiful but you can tell by reading the short story that Lord Fellington was attracted to her determination, strength and smarts rather than just her looks. I really wished the author would revised this into a full length story. For example, a story about their lives after marriage? They only met one day and then got married. Maybe a story describing the transition into marriage? How about some new characters that are determined to end their marriage? Or Miss Dunaway having doubts about her fit into Fellington's world? Some sort of conflict like that would be a nice path for the story....just a thought.
