Thereafter starts the story again, this time switching to London. Her companion Lucy, a crusty old termagant, is fabulous & put's Ian's uncle Duncan (Scottish vicar) straight as to Ian's part in her young charge's downfall. Ian is very unkind to our young heroine, and says some very hurtful things to her, as he is unaware of just how dreadful her life has been during the intervening 18 months because of his actions when he ruined her.
They are thrown together at his humble Scottish dwelling & once again, sparks fly. Fast forward 18 months & their paths cross through her uncle's evil plan to marry her off to anyone who'll have her. They are compromised & subsequently everything goes pear-shaped for our young heroine Elizabeth (unbeknown to our hero Ian). There isn't too much historical detail in the story, but that didn't detract too much. It is essentially a historical love story. Just as I'd catch my breath, I'd be off again chasing the story.

I groaned as most thick books have excessive padding in them & I skip through chunks of unnecessary passages, but not with this book. When it arrived (speedily, thank you), it was 550 pages in length. It's my first Judith McNaught book & I loved it.
