Only Enchanting by Mary Balogh
Summary: The
Survivors' Club: Six men and one woman, all wounded in the Napoleonic Wars,
their friendship forged during their recovery at Penderris Hall in
Cornwall. Now, in the fourth novel of the Survivors' Club series,
Flavian, Viscount Ponsonby, has left this refuge to find his own salvation—in
the love of a most unsuspecting woman.…
Flavian, Viscount Ponsonby, was devastated by his fiancée’s desertion after his
return home. Now the woman who broke his heart is back—and everyone is
eager to revive their engagement. Except Flavian, who, in a panic, runs
straight into the arms of a most sensible yet enchanting young woman.
Agnes Keeping has never been in love—and never wishes to be. But then she meets
the charismatic Flavian, and suddenly Agnes falls so foolishly and so deeply
that she agrees to his impetuous proposal of marriage.
When Agnes discovers that the proposal is only to avenge his former love, she’s
determined to flee. But Flavian has no intention of letting his new bride go,
especially now that he too has fallen so passionately and so unexpectedly in
love.
Angie's Comments: Only Enchanting
by Mary Balogh is another entry in her Survivors’ Club series. Agnes is scared
of love and passion, and she has devoted her life to staying away from it. Agnes
is a strong character who can withstand the problems of life. Flavian is a
strong character who has learned to live with his traumatic brain injury. He
doesn’t always understand himself or remember past events, but he challenges
Agnes to feel passion.
The families of both Flavian and
Agnes are interesting and complicated. Even though Flavian’s brother died
before the book began, he plays a large role in the plot.
This is a sweet romance, not as
steamy as some of Balogh’s other books.
Ultimately, this book shows that life is a series of decisions,
and sometimes you make good decisions and other times you have to live with the
decision even if you don’t want to!
