Publisher's summary
Lady Charlotte Darrington’s path in life is clearly laid out before her: she will select a suitable husband, marry, and one day inherit her father’s Scottish dukedom. But a growing restlessness has her desperate for a bit of freedom before her all-too-certain future closes in. When the opportunity to travel to America arises, Charlotte leaps at the chance and soon finds herself across the Atlantic in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Her American hosts and their friends couldn’t be more welcoming—all except one. The insufferable Dr. Galloway captures her eye—and her ire.
Life has made Dr. Alec Galloway wary of everyone, including the self-important Lady Charlotte Darrington, who thinks herself above Pittsburgh society. He makes no qualms about voicing his disapproval of Britain’s archaic peerage system, or of a certain peeress herself, though he never intended for his brusque opinions to reach her ears, sparking a conflagration neither could have foreseen. Yet as Charlotte gains insight into Alec’s wounded past, she offers him something that changes everything—her friendship. Despite Alec’s determination to keep everyone at bay, she slowly erodes his defenses, allowing him glimpses of a future he never imagined. Soon he must decide whether to face his past fears and grasp a second chance at love or risk losing Charlotte forever.

As a child, Devlin Ware thought his family stood for all that was right and good in the world. They were kind, gracious, and shared the beauty of Ravenwood, their grand country estate, by hosting lavish parties for the entire countryside.

I’ve had a crush on my brother’s best friend my entire life. Once, in high school, I even got a taste of what it would be like to be with him thanks to some well-placed mistletoe: incredible and humiliating. We always spend Christmas with Max’s family at our cabin, and every year I have to suffer through a blissful week with him in a completely platonic way. His steady stream of girlfriends have made him off limits . . . until now. It’s Christmas. We’re at the cabin together. And Max Dawson is single.

Every bit as good as the first book
I loved reading Charlotte’s story. The author did a beautiful job incorporating parts of the first book without it feeling forced. This could easily be a stand-alone novel and not simply a sequel to “Hearts in the Highlands”.
I enjoyed seeing the personal growth in both of the main characters throughout the book. I did get frustrated a few times with Alec but that tension is what keeps you intrigued in a story, I suppose. And I loved the ending and epilogue! I also thought the author did a great, well-researched job with the historical aspects.
The narrator’s performance was solid. I know this will be a book I listen to over and over, just like Callum and Katie’s story.

Such a sweet story of loss, healing, and hope.
I do so enjoy the way Heidi Kimball writes and Noah Wall brings the story to life. I hope the story continues and we discover what adventures are in store for Charlotte’s sister….and dear Tavish. This was a wondrous tale.

Enjoyed the book about her parents much more. Tedious at times. Strong Christian elements. I do enjoy Noah Wall's narration though.
