"This last romance of the Compass Club series was definitely enhanced by reading the other 3 stories in quick sequence (actually while listening to them while painting projects) I know some of the reviews have been scathing about the plot revolving around the Ria's school being a front for the Bishop's sexual abuse of young women. Yes, it was pretty graphic but the story between West and Ria was actually in my estimation the most romantic of the series. West, like all the men of the club is terrific. The scenes of the men together are great fun to read. Ria was the most endearing of the heroines. She had an approach to her relationship with West that was refreshingly "non angsty" compared to some of the baggage the other heroines in the series had. I agree with one of the other reviews that a group epilogue would have been wonderful but one can still imagine the new families of the club would have a close knit and fun filled future. I am a new fan of Jo Goodman."
"This is the first book I have read by Jo Goodman. I love Jo's writing style however I was completely disturbed. I enjoyed the imagery of the era and the proper etiquette of the time. I can't say that the characters used proper etiquette which was a fun surprise until the truth emerges of the missing student. I wasn't sure if I could finish the book knowing that young girls were being held a sex slaves to a corrupt powerful men (very detailed). My hesitation was the comprehension that justice may not be served this time, and this really could have happened. It was difficult to get through, but was glad I finished the book."
