From School Library Journal:
YA Teenage girls should find this sequel to A Matter of Feeling (1980) and Christmas Lessons (1984, both Little) wildly romantic. Pauline, now 19, has persuaded her parents to let her begin journalism school with her friend Bea. She uses an interview assignment as an excuse to reintroduce herself to 31-year-old novelist Paul Demogee, whom she had known briefly and fallen in love with the year before. Paul is standoffish and still embittered by the loss of his leg 14 years earlier. While she is working through her feelings for Paul, she comes into her own as a published writer and on an alternately idyllic and nearly tragic vacation with Bea, comes to a closer understanding of her friend. In all these trials, Pauline is surrounded by the warm supportive love of her family. Boissard's exquisite portrayal of Pauline's family relationships and her painful maturation has an immediacy and reality that have made Boissard's novels well received. The translation flows easily and smoothly, and the French setting only adds to the flavor of romance dominating this novel. Betsy Shorb, PGCMLS, Md.
