Just delightful. Their courtship was sweet, and the characters were engaging. 2nd read- I think this is definitely underrated. It's really sort of beautiful, and has wonderful themes of loyalty, and love, and self worth. And handles the complicated relationships we have with our parents and siblings in a very insightful way also. Quite lovely all around. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Other things I loved were the symbolism, the pacing, the characterizations of the Dalrymple family. Margaret was fascinating and watching her growth from a spoiled princess to a depressed and discarded bastard to a loving and selfless woman was very rewarding. Her family also avoided being stereotypical. They alternated between loving and mercenary while maintaining their individuality. Even though I didn't like them, I felt bad for them, and that's infinitely more important.
The one thing I didn't care for was the hero. I know I know. How can I dislike someone as selfless and rich and handsome as Ash who clearly worships the ground Margaret walks on? The reason is simple: he didn't feel human. No matter what Margaret did or said, he was never mad at her. He always did as she asked, what everyone asked, and while he did have his faults, they were framed in a way that he felt he wasn't perfect enough. So he had to keep doing things to be accepted, especially with his brothers. Ash's relationship with his brothers often over-shadowed the love story, and it just didn't feel romantic.
If you're looking for a unique romance with great characters, I highly recommend this. It's well worth a read, despite my reservations. ( )
