The Falls of Erith turned out to be one of the better books I've read by LeVeque. Medieval stories are some of my favorites and she didn't disappoint in her descriptors, character development or historical accuracy. I especially enjoy her descriptions of the knights in their armor, their chargers, their armies.Gray's life was abyssmal. She was trapped with the nasty mother, annoying daughter, abject poverty, yet she kept working and showing what a selfless person she was. She never would have guessed the answer to a new life would be in the form of a knight in shining armor - literally.I enjoyed the interesting twist of the nasty mother and her undoing. The daughter was annoying and I couldn't like her until after she was married and matured.My favorite thing about the book that made it so unlike others in this genre was the fact Braxton and Gray actually talked to one another and didn't allow communication or lack of, to be an issue. So many other stories I've read, thinking if only they would talk to one another and not assume... But, then there might not be a story.
