Review: Overly Dramatic to the Point of Sappy
Rating: 2 out of 5

I like clean historical romance novels.  This was a clean romance so I upped the rating to a 2 star.Overall, this was a shallow story that the author tried to beef-up with soap opera dramatics.  The dialogue was tedious.  The "secret" was not worth the so called life sacrificing decision made by the h.  The mind set that everyone is trying to protect the ones they love by putting themselves in very bad situations over and over all in the name of love - just stupid.The dramatics were also poorly thought out.  For example, the fast bounce back from a thwarted suicide -not likely.  The passionate deep kisses on battered lips and face - never could happen.  Witnessing a killing and a short time later that same day feeling "healed" - silly.
