Rich little novella!
If you like Catherine Palmer, this book will not disappoint. The characters are rich and well developed. Clemma's world is small and mundane, and maybe her Christianity has become a little stunted too--enter Dr. Paul Blaine, a physician with a notorious reputation.

Clemma is a young widow with secrets she dares tell no man. Filling her time as a lonely, conservative Christian widow with companions of water colors and flowers, she happens to meet the mysterious and "hated" Dr. Paul Blaine. His unethical practices have made him a village outcast but his need for citrus fruit in winter has driven him to the conservatory where Clemma paints. This is a light romance set in England and keeps a reader in suspense, even though the plot is a little syrupy and somewhat predictable.

Rich little novella!,

This review is from: A Victorian Rose (English Ivy, Book 4) (Hardcover)
If you like Catherine Palmer, this book will not disappoint. The characters are rich and well developed. Clemma's world is small and mundane, and maybe her Christianity has become a little stunted too--enter Dr. Paul Blaine, a physician with a notorious reputation. Clemma's safe little world is shaken but she doesn't run from it as she would like but lays it at the feet of God, and therefore grows as a result of the encounter. I suppose it's a bit predictable but written with such skill that I didn't mind in the least!
