Cocktails and Books

I adored this book right up until the last page. I had questions about what was going on with Gideon, but I could overlook those as we made our way to Thorn and Olivia's HEA. The ending did me in. It was kind of abrupt. Olivia and Thorn make-up, she asks when they are going to wed and he says when he finds Gideon. No one had been worried about Gideon before and his disappearance shouldn't impact you getting off the grass and at least get closure with Olivia's father. It was kind of "Hey, he already agreed and after all that's happened we're just going to do our own thing." Given the events that had just happened, I would have liked the closure with her father...even if we weren't getting their wedding at the end.
All that being said, if you are a lover of historical romances you must pick this book up. The banter and chemistry with these two characters more than make up for my dislike of the last page.
