***SEMI SPOILER ALERT***
I normally don't write reviews because I normally don't read them I like to form my own opinions on books but this book deserves me making a note.

I don't know what made me request this book its not my normal read but I'm so glad I did. Never have I read a romance that didn't contain the XXX stuff. This was beautifully written and so magically spun that any of that would have ruined the moment.

While I found it a slow read for the first chapter or so (so much so that I thought of putting it aside to pick up at a later time) once the story started to unfold I couldn't put it down.

The ending (which I won't reveal) was a twist that made me think wow I didn't see that coming.

The author did a beautiful job of portraying not only the charters in vivid detail but also the setting and the objects within the work. I found myself visualizing things as the characters saw them and I felt I could see what they were seeing.

Beautiful and I wish the store wouldn't have ended.

I will look forward to more of Susanna Kearsley's work and know I will be rereading this work more years to come.
