Mid plot line, however, it gets an extra star for inflicting a concussion via chamber pot.

The hero doesn’t like people who are looking for a raise in their social status like his neighbors. The heroine is his neighbor, but isn’t a social climber like his family. When she lays into the hero, he shuts her up with a kiss that is witnessed by a gossip so they marry. Then there are some twists and turns which add to the plot. It was a good read.

A beautiful love story
I really enjoyed this book. It was certainly a rollercoaster of emotions. Which started fast, got faster, and then everything started to make sense. There were more twists and turns to make you feel dizzy. There were some very satisfying moments when you felt like shouting YES at the top of your voice.

Compromised
Aaron and Dorothy did it to themselves, they were seen in a compromised position.
At that time they did not know each other well, nor did they like each other, they were like fire and oil..and as fire and oil are very combustible,so was their relationship. Irresistible to each other.
Thank you ♥️

Great storyline! I really enjoyed reading this one about Aaron and Dorothy. They obviously came to really love each other and I found their story really heartfelt and good in a deep and meaningful way. I would recommend this story to any who like a good historical romance.
