This is the quintessential historical romance--practically perfect in every way. This was one of those books that I almost could not put down. I loved the writing style, the romance, the story, and you will probably not see the twists and turns that come towards the end. I sure didn't! This was crafted in such an amazing way, and I think most romantics would love it and even some history buffs might find it enjoyable.There were a few minor issues as far as the book goes. I don't think there really was any profanity in the book--at least that I can remember. There are some sex scenes, and I didn't feel that the detail during one of the scenes was necessary, but it did not ruin my perception of the book--as you can see. While there is a lot violence, none of it is overly graphic. Yes, it paints a picture, but it was never offensive to me.This author is absolutely amazing. Her powers of description are rare in today's writing world (at least from what I have seen). And her characterizations are amazing. Practically every character is three-dimensional, and I truly connected with the story even though I am so far removed. I would definitely recommend this book, and I can hardly wait to read more of her historical novels.I was sent a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. I was not financially compensated, and all opinions are 100 percent mine.
