![]() ![]() He’s been in the wings of Comfort’s life since she was sixteen and has been attracted to her from that very first meeting. She delves into what motivated Comfort to feel that way and forces her to look at what their friendship actually consisted of.īode is one of those heroes that I find it near impossible not to like. The author is also not content to let Comfort’s feelings for Bram rest simply. The transition from Bram to Bode is extremely smooth and is aided by Comfort’s memories of her come out ball at sixteen. Sometimes those plots work, but sometimes the transition from loving the first guy to loving the hero comes off as rushed and disingenuous. Goodman is usually a sure thing, but I wasn’t sure what I would think of a romance that starts with the heroine cast as in love with someone else. I was a little nervous when I started this book. Twisting plots, clever dialogue, subtle characterization…it all works so well for me. ![]() I enjoy the current offerings in Historical Romance, but sometimes I long for something a little different. After finishing this book, I can say with all certainty that it has been much too long since I read a Jo Goodman. ![]()
