This book is perfect for a quick morning/afternoon read while drinking your own cup of tea. The story was short and bittersweet; a typical period romance. I didn't particularly care for any of the characters, but I did enjoy seeing where the story took them.

Favorite lines:
"What's the danger? Or, if there is one, doesn't that make it all the more exciting?"

Philip: "...I don't mean it the way it sounds, but it's such a fuss for a single afternoon."
Rosemary: "Not such a fuss to start an entire life."

"And though she might not be able to control the rest of her life, it was clear she was going to have whatever she wanted for dinner."

"When someone dies, time seems to take on a dimension of its own. Minutes expand to sometimes seem like hours and silence is filled with memories of what had been."
