This is a wonderful historical romance. Victorian Literature always pulls at the heart with idealistic, romantic imagery. Mary Balogh's characters are ultra real and relatable. You feel every disappointment, get excited at every new development, and wish for everyone's happy ending.

Another good book from M. Balogh.

I have yet to be disappointed in Mary Balogh's books. The third installment in the Huxtable series, featuring Meg's story. Others have described the plot; I will simply add that I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys historical romances.
