I enjoyed reading this book, for the most part ... I had some problems with the number of misunderstandings and assumptions Jack and Cressida made. Some communication would have helped!!
Penniless Cressida Bramley and her reverend father Dr. Bramley land on the doorstep of a remotely connected "cousin." The cousin's protective instincts are only gradually aroused...
The book was light and enjoyable.
