Grace Callaway does it again
Grace Callaway has done it again. Pippa and the Prince of Secrets is now in my top 3 favourites by Miss Callaway. This story is a retelling of the classic Beauty and the Beast fairytale. It is however so much more. It’s a story about second chances. A second chance at love, a second chance at finding oneself. This installment in Lady Charlotte’s Society of Angels while connected to the previous novel can be read as a standalone. The heroine, Pippa is a widow who has been emotionally scarred by her marriage. Her marriage resulted in her isolating herself from her family and doubting herself. Her hero Timothy Cullen (Cull) leads a band of children who gather information and whom he helps to protect.
I love stories where the hero and heroine have a past. I have a soft spot for novels where the hero and heroine share a past. If done right it provides a credible foundation for the hero and heroine’s. Miss Callaway has done it right. For Pippa and Cullen their past encounter was during their childhood but it impacted them both deeply. Cull shows such vulnerability. He is now my number 2 Grace Callaway book boyfriend. He almost knocked Ambrose out of his number 1 position. I thought that was an impossible feat. It was wonderful to see how the relationship resulted in development in both the hero and the heroine. Cull realized that he could share his “burden” and he did not have to condemn himself to a life without a life partner. He found someone who accepted him as he was scars and all. Pippa found herself again. I respected that she was adamant that in pursuing her relationship with Cull she would be herself. She refused to go into another relationship where her partner did not accept her for who she truly was.
It would not be a Grace Callaway without a mystery. I liked that the mystery was different from what I have come to expect. It helped to move the story alone. FINALLY I got to hear a tidbit about Helena and Nicholas. I have missed them. After all it really all started with them. Another good book by Grace Callaway. As usual she writes an interesting story.
I was given an ARC for an honest review.
