I'll try and keep this simple. I don't recommend this one. Hard pass, actually. I seriously considered throwing this one in the garbage can. I find it funny that, out of all the stuff I read, it's these kinds of stories that make me angry. The premise had promise. Two people fall in love just before the Russian revolution. She's a dancer and he's a doctor. What will the revolution do to their relationship? What will their relationship do to her dancing career? See, this has promise. So WHY DID HE HAVE TO BE IN A LOVELESS MARRIAGE ALREADY? What did that do to the story? Why did their age difference have to literally make you cringe? What happened to his "other" family? His children? Does he care about them AT ALL? I literally hated this guy. Hard to enjoy a romance when you think the love interest is really the villain.
Anyway, without taking this rant on much longer, I'll say no smiles for this one. Not even one. I don't recommend this one and I'm REALLY glad this is the last one in the stack of books by this author that someone gave me. I certainly won't be looking for more.
