This follows two other books in the series which I didn't manage to finish, so I didn't have high hopes for it. I also didn't know the characters at all. But I fell in love with both of them -- steadfast, self-effacing Xanthe, and honorable Aubrey. There isn't really a whole lot of plot here, but the characters are charming, and most of the book is just enjoying them falling in love.
