The third book in the Lavinia Lake/Tobias March saga. While Lavinia & Tobias continue to both irritate and arouse each other, Emmeline & Anthony's story comes to a beautiful conclusion. They balance out Lavinia & Tobias, who increasingly come across as combatants rather than lovers, although Tobias's efforts to secure some alone-time with Lavinia were funny to behold. Currant jam, anyone??

This book ended on a strangely incomplete note, as thought there was more to tell. Indeed, Lavinia's observations about Tobias's growing power to unwittingly mesmerize was fascinating and I wish the author had done more with this. Dare I wonder if there will be a 4th? Should you wish to read them in order, they are: Slightly Shady, Don't Look Back and Late for the Wedding.
