Have you ever pondered over a bygone love and what might have been? "Back to You" explores the bittersweet journey of rekindling a flame that never fully dimmed. This story raises a glass to those brave enough to give love another chapter.
Shining light in a dark world, that is what Charlie Lane does. Just as Cora’s writing brings passion to the ladies of the ton, Charlie’s writing brings me such a glow of hope and happiness. This story has so many underlying messages but the greatest of those is hope. Cora has stuffed all hope so deep down that she can no longer believe in its existence. She loses herself in her midnight readings, her scandalous writing as a way to feel wanted, to feel loved but buried deep is that hope to be loved for real. Watching Liam chase his wife clear across the countryside builds a hope in the reader, that they will find their way. Their attraction always held something more but both of them needed to let themselves be free first so they could build a real love not based on perception and obligation, but based on truth and desire. The cat & mouse chase of this story built such a delicious anticipation, the constant interruptions providing a levity to the situation that was funny in its absurdity. How difficult can it be to be alone with one’s wife? Apparently very difficult indeed. The surprise visit of a certain Brute and his mischievous wife was the perfect cherry on top. If anyone could inspire daring, it’s Sarah & Xavier. My grin just about split my cheeks when I realized who they stumbled upon. This story will give you hope that everyone deserves and can find a happy ending of their own.
Another winner from Charlie! Lady Isabella acts as a maid in a hotel, to obtain gossip to assist debutants with avoiding fortune hunters and the like. Fitzhugh sees the "maid" running about his hotel, but finds she doesn't actually work there. He is attracted to her and sees her, as a Dukes sister, as an asset to his business as well. He goes to her brother asking to court her, unbeknownst to Isabella. The attraction between the two is almost instantaneous, but as in all good romances, takes time to cultivate. Definitely recommended!
I enjoyed the banter between the main characters. The heroine is trying to make sure her brother marries someone worthy of him so she infiltrates a hotel. The hero needs a wife to be more acceptable as a business owner. They come together for these reasons, but they may get more than they bargained for. This was a cute story.
I really loved this book, but of course I’m in love with each and every one of this author’s books. In this one I must confess that I related to Isabella so much! She’s somewhat of a control freak like me. And I totally understand that it’s hard to let it go. Actually, Rowan needed a woman who took control of his life and wrenched him from the shadows in which he was much too comfortable. He needed to be managed and he was! I really loved the side characters as well, because in Lane’s books they are always as gorgeously fleshed out as the main ones. And I especially loved the ladies, the old friends of the late Duchess, who are always helpful and funny. A gorgeous, five star read!!!
This has been such a wonderful series, and this has to be my favorite story yet! Isabella and Rowan are pure delight! The storyline is charming and the clever dialogue and banter between those two make for a most entertaining read. She is a Duke’s sister and he, a successful hotel owner, yet nevertheless a commoner. He could never be accepted by her world, but their hearts say otherwise. I was rooting for them all the way, and enjoying every page of their romance!
