After Forever your Rogue, I just needed to learn more about Fordham. In particular, knowing that he passes on by time that book’s epilogue happens made me very sad. I know it was part of his story with Nate, but it made me sad nonetheless. So reading about young Raymond soothed my heart a little bit. The only thing I had trouble with in this book is that I found some of Raymond’s behavior unbelievable as he gave in to his desire for Rosalie. I was actively thinking - he’s too concerned with honor and propriety to ravish her in an old mill!!! The liberties that were taken definitely seemed uncharacteristic. But I know I know, Rosalie just made him undone. And I love that for them. But I just couldn’t reconcile it.
