“Eloise, a spinster, forges a friendship with pen pal, Phillip. She secretly flees London to met him. He is not the man she thought from their letters, but slowly their friendship is renewed and kindled into love. Nice easy read with well written characters. Eloise is strong, independent woman, and does not need saving. Will appeal to romance readers with a preference for historical settings, but because Eloise is independent it should also appeal to contemporary romance readers.”
