Rating: 5 out of 5

This novel was riveting as the reader is totally unsure of how Pippa will resolve her plight. She is to marry a childhood friend, who she loves like a brother in order that her family can prosper. However, even as wedding preparations unfold she discovers that she has great passion for another man. The author takes us on an unexpected journey as Pippa's life unfolds in a different direction.Pippa is a thoroughly modern woman, trapped in the expectations of the time. She is feisty, fearless and has extraordinary goals for herself. She embraces life whole-heartedly.Ms. Walters does a superb job of setting and character description. I found the attention to detail especially when describing the clothing of the day particularly well done. Lots of plot twists and an unusual and shocking ending.
