Ms. Johnstone brings together two bruised and hurting people you instantly care and hope for. One feels guilt for not being enough and the other has lost the ability to trust in goodness. Circumstances force both to enter a marriage of convenience, but convenience is quickly taken over by attraction and hope. While this is a novella, you feel as if you have known and spent more time with the characters then you have. It is a beautifully written story of hope.The tenderness, understanding and love Nicholas offers to Lillian is heartwarming. Nicholas sees beyond her circumstances. He works to right the wrongs done to her. Bring her peace and help her to see she is worthy of admiration and love. Nicholas’s love helps her to stand up for herself and refuse to give her past any power over her and her future. In helping Lillian, Nicholas is freed of the guilt of failing a friend and he comes to feel worthy of Lillian’s love.I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
