Romance novels often focus on young, bright-eyed heroines or dashing, boyish rogues, but Someone to Care dares to delve into what the world looks like after decades of chasing empty dreams, and the insecurities that come with rebuilding after life has done its worst. Much of what makes this story so fresh is its mature leading couple. With this latest novel, Balogh brings insight, innovation and maturity to a genre that can often feel repetitive. Someone to Care is a truly unique offering from an already accomplished author.
At the inn, he takes a risky step away from his pride, she takes a chance and meets him halfway, and the two of them unconsciously begin to heal the hurts of their past and grow together. The marquess also finds himself caught in the memory of his brief flirtation with Viola 14 years prior, which ended when she became one of the only women in his long history of dalliances to turn him down.
She panics and runs from the embrace of her family to an obscure country inn, where an accident strands her and she finds herself captivated once more by the ardent gaze of Marcel Lamarr, the Marquess of Dorchester. Two years after the death of her husband, the Earl of Riverdale-and the very public revelation of some very scandalous family secrets-Viola Kingsley finds herself stuck in place, unable to move on the way her children and loved ones have. Mary Balogh returns to her lush Westcott Family series with Someone to Care, an immersive story of a disgraced former countess searching for her new normal.
