Days from taking her vows, Marianne Langley is forced back into society, and straight into scandal. A former nun has no place in ballrooms… or in the household of a powerful widower and his young son…

This was a real page turner. It was so difficult to guess what the next problem or solution was coming up next. It was so riveting, I started and finished on one sitting. Thank you Hanna Hamilton for a wonderful way to spend a cold and rainy day!

I enjoyed this well-written love story, that grew from two unsettled souls. Lord Lucien blamed himself for the death of his first wife. Marianne wanted to be free to explore and did not want to be tied to rules within a marriage. She went to live in a convent to find peace and solace. However, her aunt brought her out of the convent and she met Lucien. They found a shared feeling that they did not want to be in society and married in a marriage of convenience. Lucien had a son and was very protective of him.
Gradually they grew closer but Lucien found it difficult and kept pushing Marianne away. Will they ever be able to have a settled marriage or will Marianne return to her convent life? Read on and enjoy.

Marianne has been taken from the convent straight to marriage. Lucien is a complicated character wanting a relationship but afraid of one due to his past. He’s cold and warm towards Marianne which leaves her confused. It’s endearing how she reacts to the child being she has never been around small ones and how he has taken to her. As things process where they get close and then Lucien withdraws Marianne has decided she has had enough and goes back to the convent. ARC Review

Lucien and Marianne formed a marriage of convenience striving to help one another deal with society and nothing more. He needed a wife to stop being bothered by all ladies seeking a desirable husband a she needed security and freedom. Their relationship grew throughout the story and love won out!

Found the book a little stilted and the story did not seem to flow. Also think that the conversations a year old had with his father about remarriage and a mother to be unfeasible. A a four year old would not have the capacity for the conversation , he would only ask why he did not have a mother like other children . Especially as he would not have any memory of her. I speak from experience having lost my dad at that age and the first time I asked my mother why I didn’t have a father I was 6 In later years my mum told me I had just asked where daddy was for a few weeks after my dad died then stopped and I had a few memories of him . This child had none. It would have been better to make him older and he would needed interaction with lots of children that had a mother to show him there was something missing in his life . The vocabulary given to a 4 year old and his understanding does not seem to realistic
