I liked that both Sebastian and Mary had a history together and that they genuinely cared about each other so it made everything we find out, everything going on make sense. This was such a short romance but it really packed a wallop of a story and I was here for all of it.

but when they met again after 4 years, it was obvious they shared a comfortable relationship, the big brother-small sister kinda bond. The hardest thing about being married is not taking everything personally when there are only the two of you. It's a typical Tessa Dare story - a hero who's a badass on the outside but turns to marshmallow fluff around the woman he loves, a heroine who knows what she wants and isn't afraid to go after it, a side of general ridiculousness and hilarity, some swoon, and a happily ever after. Meanwhile, a late-in-the-game reveal by Mary posits that she's been in love with him for years and years and kept it secret because of reasons or something but now she's happy to confess LOVE and FEELINGS.Read more about the condition Very Good: A book that has been read and does not look new, but is in excellent condition. If IKEA has ever brought you to the brink of a breakup, here is a story where true love conquers even the vaguest assembly instructions. With her bestselling “Spindle Cove”, “Castles Ever After”, and “Girl Meets Duke” series, she has had great fun creating heroines who defy the conventions of their time—engaging in “unladylike” pursuits that range from paleontology to beer-making—and dreaming up the strong-willed, sexy heroes who find their hearts ensnared by them. Overall, I give the book 3 stars — it’s frothy and fun, but neither as memorable nor as entrancing as many of Dare’s longer books. Sebastian can’t stand to see his friend’s sister, the woman he’s been secretly in love with since childhood, jilted on the most important day of her life.

Had me chuckling with laughter, in awe and stitches at one crotchety caretaker and his fiery wife's antics, building with anticipation, warmed with touching uncertainty and seduced by one besotted, brooding, knight and his debate with himself to freely love the damsel of his dreams, with spicy results. It’s the first rule of friendship among gentlemen: Don’t even think about touching your best friend’s sister. Her father and brother are both long gone, her brother’s title having gone to a distant cousin, and the only person that is really around for her is her brother’s best friend Sebastian Ives.
