Val and Ellen are so wnderful, both have suffered great losses and have had difficulty coming to terms with those losses. The story is interwoven with Val's brother from the previous two books and se...
This is Grace Burrowes at her best. This might sound strange, but I am glad I read Lady Sophia's book first.
