A young widow moves her family to the countryside after the death of her husband, and finds support, friendship and more in an unlikely place.
Eleanora Coventry is an instantly likable heroine, who makes the best of the less-than-ideal lot she's been handed in life. I admired her deep desire to instill solid values and morals in her young son, combating his spoiled behaviors with grace. She finds a friend and confidant in her stablemaster, an honorable man who harbors secrets of his own.
I liked how Ridley shares his knowledge with Nora and her children. But Nora was my favorite. She rolled with the punches, and made the best of every situation, not giving up fighting for her son despite the plan put in place by her late husband.
Overall, this was a quick read, well written with good interaction and well-developed characters. I thought that it was well done, and the interaction between Nora and her son, were definitely realistic. A quick, enjoyable read about fresh starts and fighting for the ones you love.
I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
