4 of 5 stars
A fav book of 2018. Regency England.
I 1st met hero Quinn in a short story contained in anthology " 'Tis the Season: Regency Yuletide Short Stories." He was a hard-hearted
man who softened a tad. His gesture meant the world to someone else.
Quinn was a wealthy man, now a banker, who yrs earlier took every job available (even grave digger) to support his sibs. He ended up in
Newgate prison on a murder charge. He and preacher's dtr heroine Jane, lost souls, struck me as different as chalk and cheese. Gradually
these 2 felt like love to me. Quinn was tough & tender. Rescued street urchin Ned added wit and loyalty.
Edited to add.
