I absolutely adored Althea and Nathaniel's story!! I loved watching Nathaniel help Althea come into her own, to get past her upbringing and to embrace the life that she now led. Althea was just as helpful to Nathaniel. She didn't blink an eye when he told her the truth about his secret, she just kept loving him. I love these two together!
I can't believe that I have to wait until November to read Robert (Nathaniel's brother) and Constance's (Althea's sister) story!! I want to read it now!!
