After starting this book quite awhile ago, I didn't get her far into it before pausing for...weeks. Life got in the way and just yesterday I remembered it and continued reading...and stayed up late to finish it. xD Seeing as how historical romance isn't My thing, I have mixed feelings for this novella. William's reasons for needing to marry before the end of the year confused me at first, but I soon sorted it all out. His and Charlotte's marriage of convenience was sweet, but rather rushed I felt. I mean, she hadn't even been a widow for six months yet!! But I understand that she needed the security of knowing she and her son, Alec, would be well taken care of. William was really sweet and it was obvious that his love and care for both Charlotte and Alec was genuine. I loved the part with them making snow angels in the park. <3 The writing of this book really was beautiful and I LOVED the time period/setting. :) As far as the content of this book goes? It was perfectly clean, in my opinion. There were a few mentions of things, but in a right (that's the best word I can think of...) way. (I mean, they ARE married, people.) All in all, I did enjoy this book. I'm super curious to know what happened/happens with Marsali and Christopher, too. :) I'll probably never read it again, but this was what I needed when I needed it. This was a good read and I enjoyed it.
