BLURB: When John Trent, a dedicated member of the new Bow Street Runners, finds an exquisite carved angel floating in the Thames, he can’t stop thinking about it. He tracks down its creator, a sad and quiet young sculptor. But neither the angel nor the sculptor is done with John just yet. The blasted angel refuses to leave him be, behaving not at all like an inanimate object should.
Alec Allston is resigned to the fact that his love will ever be a river that flows out and never flows in. All he wanted to do was create a special gift so that a small part of himself could be with his unattainable and noble beloved, always. But when the gift keeps showing back up at his shop in the hands of a windblown and rugged thief-taker, Alec will need to reconsider his conviction that love is destined to remain an aethereal ideal.
My Review: I was given a copy in exchange for an honest review: The one thing that stood out for me was how much I have come to expect and get great characters from Eli's writings. Apart from that, this one had that lovely warm Christmas feel to it. That one of happy endings and lots of family love, even when that family isn't one by blood. I won't add anything else to my review, as I think the blurb does a superb job of letting you know what to expect, and also I want you to go buy your own copy to reread as often as you want, so as to revisit that feeling of contentment.
