[6/10] favorite grace burrowes regency couples :: sophie + vim charpentier

he was leaving. his arm came around her shoulders as if to silently acknowledge the pain of that reality. “you’ll manage, sophie. that child could not be in better hands.”

she turned into his body, the child in her arms, and vim embraced them both.

he said nothing, just held woman and baby while sophie tried to tell herself she was lucky. she’d been well and truly kissed; she’d been declared cozy; she’d been held and cuddled and given a good start on learning to care for the baby.

but she was not a baby. held and cuddled was lovely. it was not enough. she’d wished for so much more. wished for it until she couldn’t wish any more, and then vim charpentier had appeared in her life, and the wishing was worse than ever.

If you’re looking for a gentle, undemanding sort of romance between two very nice people with not an enormous amount at stake for either of them, this could very well fit the bill nicely. Lady Sophie Windham is a duke’s daughter with a soft heart and a habit of taking in strays, left literally holding a baby when her good nature if taken advantage of. Vim Charpentier steps in to help out, and, trapped by a prodigious snowstorm, the two start falling for each other.

It’s easy to look at Sophie and Vim and think their problems are Rich People Problems - they both have plenty of money and supportive families - not every story has to be about struggle and suffering. Sophie has to come to a conscious decision about what direction she wants her life to go in and Vim needs to get past some youthful issues which have been holding him back.

This is a rather charming, introspective romance with a large side of Adorable Baby thrown in with some Trapped In A Snowstorm trope action. Don’t expect a lot of action or high stakes, but if you’re in the mood for something restful and soothing with two rather nice people discovering they’re the answer to each other’s wistful dreams, this might be the book you’re looking for. Four stars.

Lady Sophie's Christmas Wish is available now.

Lady Sophie’s Christmas Wish by Grace Burrowes

Lady Sophie’s Christmas Wish by Grace Burrowes is a fun Christmas read.  The book seems to be a reprint from 2011 with a new cover.  I enjoy Grace Burrow’s books and reading about the Windham family.  

Lady Sophia, one of the many Windham children is feeling  sad.  The Christmas season is a time of joy for most, but she is feeling betwixt and between.  She has successfully managed a few days alone only by circumstances beyond the ordinary, she finds herself with an abandoned baby and Vim Charpentier  in London during a major snowstorm. 

For me, the book got better as the story moved along. I really wanted to bash the Sophie and Vim together  with the stupidness that they continued to show toward each other until the end. Of course I am looking for the rest of the books to read in this series! Lady Sophie’s Christmas Wish by Grace Burrowes was a good read.

Just finished Lady Sophie’s Christmas Wish

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advance copy of this book.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Lady Sophie's Christmas Wish is book 1 in Grace Burrowes new series of the Windham family, The Duke's Daughters.  Available 9-24-19, it's given me 3 books for my TBR pile.  I liked Sophie's brothers so much that I want to read their stories, it's an interesting family.  Although I enjoyed the characters, the plot seemed to stick in several places.  I got a Men Are From Mars vibe.  Our couple are both socially awkward and it makes for quite a few awkward scenes, I wanted to shake both of them till their teeth rattled.  At least I was invested in their relationship.

Lady Sophie Windham is lonely, even in a crowd.  She'd like a husband & children of her own but it has to be a love match.  Mr. Right hasn't come along and she's given up hope.  Now all she wants is a few days alone, no family, no servants, just her own company and thoughts.  I can't fault her for that.  A maid runs off without her baby and it's up to Sophie, there's a snow storm & she's stuck.  Along comes Vim Charpentier, he's stuck by the storm too, handsome, kind & knows about babies!  They get to spend a couple of days together & never give away their titles, they're just Vim & Sophie.  For 2 people so right for each other they can't seem to communicate.  Superficial talk & baby lessons go fine but anything deeper is a mess.  They, of course, get their HEA but it's a miracle.  By the end I was exasperated with these two knuckleheads.
