Drew and Madeline are putting the finishing touches on their wedding plans when a woman from Drew's past shows up and asks him to clear her of the suspicion of murder. We learn lots of stuff about Drew's past, which is cool.
The reason I enjoyed all the stuff about the Gilbert and Sullivan productions is that I was in three of their light operas when I was in college! I was only in the chorus, never one of the named characters, but it was incredibly fun. So when I took a Bookstagram photo of this book, I hauled out my scores to serve as a backdrop :-)
Particularly Good Bits:
Life was fleeting and unsure, how well she knew that just now, but she couldn't be afraid to live it. She couldn't be afraid to take those blessings God had sent her (p. 314).
If This was a Movie, I Would Rate It: PG-13 for non-racy discussions of a young man spending one night with a woman he's not married to, discussions of children conceived out of wedlock, mild kissing scenes, and non-gory scenes of dead bodies.
This is my 5th book read and reviewed for the Mount TBR Challenge this year.
Love the cover!
ReplyDeleteI agree! I love the covers for the whole series. In fact, they're something I referenced for my own cover designer when we were figuring out what we wanted to do for my Once Upon a Western series.
