2.5 ***Spoilers***Grace and Oliver are in love, but just as they were going to announce their betrothal, Oliver's father informed him he was already engaged by pre-arrangement with a young girl. After years apart, Grace's grandfather tells her to find a husband or he'd find one for her. Enters Daniel Lacy for Grace to pursue. What I disliked about this is that the author waited until Grace and Daniel were almost at the alter before Oliver finds a way to break the contract, and Daniel walks into the room and catches Grace and Oliver together. This was near the last chapter. I don't feel that the author should have taken it that close to matrimony. Excuse me, but if Oliver loved Grace so much, he should have been trying to find ways to break the marriage contract eariler instead of waiting until Grace was forced to find a husband. Daniel was hurt. I do hope he later finds his HEA.
