Wonderful historic love story
Good book, sometimes difficult to keep all characters straight. Satiafying ending.
great story, full of surprises
I loved the characters in this book.
A wilful heroine who takes risks but isn’t rude or foolhardy, and a hero who is self-sacrificing, but not stupidly noble are hard to find. Praise for an author who accomplishes this delicate balancing act in addition to historical accuracy.
Very good book. Enjoyed reading it.
This is not a steamy romance (no details) but a wonderful medieval romance with some historical background that rings true. It was an easy read and enjoyable.
