I liked Eliza. She was warm, sincere, and engaging. She also wanted to believe, so it was easy for Hugh to sweep her off her feet. But knowing Hugh, it was difficult to dislike him, even while you knew what was happening. You still wanted them to succeed. You wanted Hugh‘s family to warm up to Eliza and her rambunctious dog. If you want an easy to read romance with an engaging couple, this is worth a read.
