The Proposition by Judith Ivory
4.0
emotional funny hopeful lighthearted medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

An incredibly sweet book that felt original and tender. My only reservation was with a scene that could have been slightly rewritten to feel less coercive - contextually, I understand the intention, but I think the character insight could have been achieved without the moment where he oversteps without her consent. 

My nostalgia for My Fair Lady made this a sweet comfort read.
