This is a novella but to be honest feels like a full length book.
The story is well written and enjoyable.
Both characters have secrets and feelings for each other but an incident in the past has damaged their relationship.
I think the H forgets how young the H was when the events occured and he is quite cruel at their first meeting.
The forgiveness comes quickly too but one thing I liked was even though she is attracted to him, earlier on in the story when he tries to 'woo' her she holds out. ( )
