I liked this but I really wish there was more closure- I wanted a confrontation with her parents or at least for them to realize their cruelty and I wanted more follow up with the former duke and his sister (and the executor of the supposed will). I wanted some idea of what their relationship will be like (they had none previously beyond friends with benefits) and what Portia will do for work or a visa… this ended very abruptly. I was shocked when I turned the page and it was just done.
