Review

Katherine has been running the family business on her own for the past three years after her beloved uncle grew ill. To inherit the business, however, she must marry two men of her deceased uncle’s choosing: her second cousin, Charles, or her ex-boyfriend Ross. Both men already know of the arrangement and are trying to win her hand, but she has only two months to decide (she must marry by Christmas) or she’ll lose the business.

Though it’s obvious which man she’ll choose, the twist at the end was a total surprise. The romance and misplaced resentment between Katherine and Ross felt real. She struggled with the choice because of her independent nature and she fought her uncle’s Will all the way to the end.

Though the whole ‘marrying your cousin in the modern age’ bit threw me through a loop at first, everything made sense with the twist at the end. I definitely enjoyed this book.
