This was an enjoyable story not just for the romance between Fiona and Gray but for the historical piece as well. The author did a great job helping you feel and see what it was like to live during this time as immigrants came to America to find a new life. In fact, the romance piece is woven through the entire book and this makes it feel more authentic. I read a review that someone said the characters were too extreme and not believable. I disagree. There were several scenes that I found very emotional and I don't think I would have felt that way if I found them unbelievable. There are several families that you meet in the book and their dynamics are interesting and I like how the author weaves them into the story. I loved both Fiona and Gray who are strong and stubborn but both have a heart of gold and how they finally end up getting together is perfect! Terrific book!
