Helpful Score: 1

I have a love/hate relationship with this book. Why I love it: I love the old world charm and language use. I love the main character Rose. She was a strong character with deep emotional pain and a horrible past (won't go into it due to spoilers). I love the "men" of the book even after learning a bit more about their "secrets". What I did not like about it: I can't really tell you since it would ruin the book. But, nevertheless, there are twists and turns that are not explained clearly. Instead, the author reveals the secrets through Rose's own discovery but since the author doesn't detail how Rose fully discovered the twists (hard to explain without ruining the book), the reader goes from point A to point Z without anything in between. I found myself going back and rereading thinking two pages were stuck together. I usually "get" books easily but I really wanted the cheat sheet version for this book.
