4.0 out of 5 stars Right back on track!, 4 May 2009
By CJ (London, UK) - See all my reviews
Delighted to say that after a slightly disappointing 2nd book this one is right back on track. Not quite a 5 star for me, more like 4 1/2. Better than the first and much better than the second one I really loved the hero, Duncan, and the way Ms Balogh revealed his secrets little by little was very well done. Although characters from the first books appeared they didn't interfere too much with the development of the principal relationship between Margaret/Meg/Maggie and the lovely Duncan. A well plotted story with a few unexpected twists and turns.

5.0 out of 5 stars Third in series, 24 Feb 2009
By Helen Hancox "Auntie Helen" (Essex, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Mary Balogh's three stories focusing on the three Huxtable sisters finishes with 'At Last Comes Love', the story of the elder sister, Margaret. Each of these stories has looked at how people manage to make a success out of a marriage of convenience, approaching the topic slightly differently.

Margaret's story relies on a rather unlikely set of circumstances to work, although Mary Balogh is such a good writer that generally it is easy to go along with the plot. Margaret finds herself the subject of gossip after it is revealed she is betrothed to the Earl of Sheringford, Duncan Pennethorne, an infamous rake who ran off five years before with another man's wife, leaving his fiancée at the altar. Margaret's touch of obstinacy means that she doesn't immediately repudiate the rumours but instead begins to try to learn more about Duncan, whether he really is the amoral man he has been made out to be, and whether he in fact offers a chance for her to have a home and family as she had wished.

Duncan needs to marry, very quickly indeed. Margaret isn't the sort of lady he was planning to wed but she's possibly his only option. Can these two people, one with many secrets, possibly make a future together? Can a tendency to dislike each other turn to love?

This story focused more on the initial meetings and wooings of Margaret and Duncan rather than their life after marriage. In fact, the big event in the latter part of the book, up to which many events had been leading, felt rather abruptly handled to this reader. In some ways this story felt less polished and the characters less believable than Mary Balogh usually produces but I did still enjoy it and she is still able to write far more effectively than almost anyone else in this genre.

this is the Mary Balogh of the middle period. Less intense than the last books but that it is a pleasure to read anyway.
