When he happens upon Miss Lindsay a a party, the immediate pull of attraction feels to right to be wrong… almost as if he know her from before.
Both harbouring many secrets and even more hurt, can these two reach past that to find love and redemption in each other?
I enjoyed Mary Jo Putney’s writing and found the characters very compelling. I felt their hurt and their joys. This book dealt with some very mature themes. I was concerned when these themes were introduced, but I feel like it was handled well and integral to the plot.
This was a hot and dramatic read, that had me on the edge of my seat and melting in my chair at times. I recommend this book.
Dearly Beloved by Mary Jo Putney is to be re-released June 25, 2019.
