Synopsis

Sometimes, just one person can pull a whole family apart. And sometimes, it just takes one person to pull it back together.

In this Westcott family novel, New York Times bestselling Regency Romance author Mary Balogh shows once again how love truly conquers all.

As a young man, Justin Wiley was banished by his father for mysterious reasons, but now his father is dead, and Justin has been Earl of Brandon for six years. A dark, dour man, he nonetheless takes it as his responsibility to care for
his halfsister, Maria, when her mother dies. He travels to her home to fetch her back to the family seat at Everleigh Park.

Although she adored him once, Maria now loathes Justin, and her friend Lady Estelle Lamarr can see immediately how his very name upsets her. When Justin arrives and invites Estelle and her brother to accompany Maria to Everleigh Park
to help with her distress, she begrudgingly agrees for Maria’s sake.

As family secrets unravel during Maria’s homecoming, Justin discovers his desire for a countess. And while he may believe he’s found an obvious candidate in beautiful twenty-five-year-old Lady Estelle, she is most certain that they could never make a match. …

Two likeable leads with integrity. Unfortunately their relationship lacked chemistry and felt a bit lukewarm. Much of the book was set during a country house party. There were family secrets and issues to be unraveled and past hurts forgiven, but it wasn't too angsty. The plot was fine. The hero was......more

This was an OK addition to the long Westcott series. I guess Mary Balogh heard everyone complaining about how the whole family kept showing up in every book, so she decided to stop sending the entire Westcott clan into this book ... and simply replaced them with *three* family groups. Listen, I'm fro......more
