My first experience with Lauren Royal, and I loved loved loved them!  The stories link together, and it's more interesting to read them in order, but each stands alone.  Ms. Royal has obviously studied the time period, which makes them all the more fascinating.One of the things I really enjoyed is the flow of each book - there are several plot climaxes (PLOT climaxes...OK, the other kind, too, but...), so it takes you from one heart-stopping moment to another, and never gets dull, but you have time to relax and enjoy the characters and the story between high points.  I had a whole weekend to myself, being down with a cold, so I finished the whole set in record time!I also bought the novella sequel to this set, Forevermore, and it was a fun, happy little story that tied up one of the semi-loose ends to the trilogy.  Now I'm beginning Ms. Royal's second trilogy, the Flowers.  Maybe I'll have to develop another cold!  :o)Worth every cent of the price!
