This has all of the elements I love: cheating, hurt feelings, misunderstandings, etc. But I think the writing became a bit repetitive and I kept thinking of other books that do this better. I did read this in a few hours so if nothing else it was a propulsive read for me. ( ) Gil Truman is forced into marriage with Rose Davenport due to his father gambling and losing the family estates. Rose is young, just recovering from a severe illness, and the honeymoon is a disaster so Gil dumps her at a distant estate and leaves her there for five years. She's turned into a beauty, so when she goes to London to seek her errant husband, he doesn't recognize her. But he does fall in love with her and they spend a night together. Events only become more convoluted from there. I like angsty stories of unrequited love or separations, and this one is very good. Rose and Gil don't know each other and it takes a while for them to understand how their marriage came about and to stop blaming each other. This book was recommended to me by Goodreads, and it fit the bill perfectly for a quick read with all the feels.
Overall, there is nothing very new and different in this book; it’s simply a familiar type of historical romance, done very well. My grade for Unforgivable is a B+.
Gil Truman has eyes only for the beautiful Tilly-until he is forced to marry plain, sickly Rose Davenport to reclaim the lands his father foolishly gambled away. After a disastrous wedding night tainted with his bitterness, he deposits Rose at his remote, Northumbrian estate, soothing his guilt with the thought that she need never lay eyes on him again. Five years after the mortifying wedding night that destroyed all her romantic fantasies, Rose is fed up with hearing second-and third-hand reports of Gil's philandering ways. She is no longer the shy, homely girl he left behind, but a strong, confident woman who knows how to run an estate. And knows what she wants-her husband, back in their marriage bed. Gil doesn't recognize the bold, flirtatious woman he meets at a ball, with or without her mask. Yet he is bewitched and besotted, and their night together is the most passionate he has ever known. But when he confesses his sins to the beautiful stranger, the truth rips open the old wounds of their blighted history. Threatening any hope of a future together. Contains mature themes.
