Alexandria
Featherstone is used to being alone. Her
parents have always been away more than home.
But when they do not return after a year of being gone the King declares
them dead and hands guardianship of Alexandria to Gabriel, the Duke of St.
Easton. Alexandra and Gabriel share
letters but before they can meet in person she takes off on her own to find her
parents, believing they are still alive.
There are
parts of this story that are quite unbelievable. As rich as the Featherstone’s seem to be, why
do they leave their daughter practically penniless as they pursue their
dream? I have a certain thought on that
and it may be explained in the sequels to this story. Lady Alex is stubborn and determined. She uses falsehoods to get what she wants,
knowing that it is wrong and not what God would have her do. Gabriel is the proud Duke of Easton who is
brought to his knees by an unexplainable malady. He has to learn to work with the help of
others instead of relying on his own abilities.
His disability appears at the same moment he learns of his new guardianship.
Even though
some bits of the story seem to be a bit preposterous I was hooked quickly. I really did enjoy the story as a whole and I
think leaving the story unfinished, in the traditional sense, was clever. I will be getting the rest of the series!
