What is this book about?
Spring is in the air . . . and change is too. Mercy Grove has lost her girls’ school and is resigned to life as a spinster, especially as the man she admires is out of reach. She contemplates leaving Ivy Cottage to become a governess–a decision with consequences she never imagined.
Meanwhile, her friend Jane Bell is facing a difficult decision of her own. Should she accept Gabriel Locke even if it means giving up her inn and destining another man to a childless marriage?
When a secretive new dressmaker arrives in the village, Mercy, Jane, and the other ladies of Ivy Hill attempt to befriend her, but they soon suspect she isn’t who she claims to be.
Together, the women of Ivy Hill look forward to one wedding, but surprises lie in store and dearly held dreams may yet come true.
My review:
Nice ending to the series. I enjoyed visiting the small town of Ivy Hill again. This story is a gentle stroll through the lives of Jane, Mercy, and several others with multiple light romances. There was one character who didn’t get the ending I was hoping for but I really enjoyed all the other happy ever afters.
What I enjoyed most about this book:
Multiple gentle romances
What I didn’t like about this book:
One character not getting the ending I wanted for them
Would I recommend this book to others? Yes. Good characters, gentle storytelling, and sweet romance. This is the third book in the series. I recommend reading the series in order to avoid spoilers.
