This is a lovely little look into the idea of a wedding dress "whisperer" - who is Francesca.

I'm not that interested in wedding dresses or weddings, but one does learn something from this, and comes around a little, just as the hero, Raphael, did.

Unfortunately, there's way too much dilly dallying trying to justify Francesca's values - her love of the atmospherics around her vintage wedding dresses ... and all things old world. And not enough focus on getting on with the story.

Jess is determined to get back a family heirloom necklace for her grandmother. Her grandmother has been pining for this beautiful butterfly necklace since it disappeared. Jess has discovered it up for auction. Being outbid does not stop Jess! She hounds the owner, Guy, until there are fireworks!

The only issue I had with this book is Jess. Jess really never yearned to be adventurous after her accident. To me, you don’t change that part of you. I just felt like she didn’t fit the mold the author put her in. But that did not really affect my outlook on this tale. I adored the history and the mystery surrounding the necklace.

Then there is Guy! Oh boy Guy! He is magnetic from the get go! Basically because of his interactions with Jess. Their connection is irresistible!
