If I'm being perfectly honest with myself, I've done a shamefully poor job of addressing my love for Cat Sebastian 's books around these parts. I've certainly noted each time her beautiful stories have appeared on my end-of-the-year best of lists, see: The Perfect Crimes of Marian Hayes , basically every book in The Cabots series , and of course We Could Be So Good . And the pull is, quite simply, this: nobody is as kind and gentle with their characters and with their hearts than Cat Sebastian. Nobody. I haven't always been one for the gentler stories, but I cannot overstate the absolute gift it is sinking into one of Sebastian's exquisitely crafted historicals knowing that I get to spend the next however many pages watching two idiots pine and deny that feelings exist and just take care of each other as they fall in love. I wouldn't trade that experience for the world. Not this one or any other. Only two things in the world people count b...
I LOVE this cover and am already imagining it on my bookshelf.
ReplyDeleteSo do I, Kristen. I let out a gasp of appreciation the moment I saw it.
DeleteOh yes, I have preordered this. :) Uh huh, we're thinking alike on this one.
ReplyDeleteGood on you, speedy! I can't wait.
Delete* girly squeal*
ReplyDeleteHehe. Precisely.
DeleteI like this cover aside from the fact the model looks a little too young to me.
ReplyDeleteShe does look young. But then the original one looked way old to me. And, uh, WELL-ENDOWED.
DeleteI want to get a copy of this too!
ReplyDeleteI just can't envision not having it on my shelf!
DeleteNice! Much more like my idea of Kate.
ReplyDeleteLove this! I hope this means new covers for the rest of the series!
ReplyDeleteWouldn't that be sweet?
DeleteNice. I'll have to preorder this one since I'm curious about the bonus material (!).
ReplyDeleteHappy belated birthday. We moved yesterday and things are crazy. I tried to comment twice using my laptop without luck. I also loved the pictures of your children.

I know! I'm hoping for Curran POVs and maybe some stuff we haven't read.
DeleteThanks so much, Karen. I can't believe you're moved! I know how crazy that can be. Hope unpacking and settling in goes smoothly for you.
Thanks, Angie. Now that I'm able to use my desktop computer, the world feels right again! I'm ignoring the chaos behind me... K
DeleteI wonder what that first time in print thing will be. I think they blogged about it, but I just forgot. I already own all of the books, but I doubt I'll be able to resist getting a copy of this, simply because I'm a Kate and Curran addict.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I'm thinking possibly some Curran POV stuff, but I can't remember for sure.
DeleteLove finding fellow addicts, btw. I am an unrepentant one. :)
Oh man. Why do publishers do this to us?!
ReplyDeleteI know, Christine. It's impossible to resist!
