I purchased and read this book on a Kindle Fire.This medieval story is about a young man, orphaned at ten, fostered for two years by his birth father’s best friend, then sent to his clan to be hidden from his stepfather until he could take his legacy back.  It is the story of his foster sister, whom is betrothed to another, but is still in love with the boy she knew when he was fostered with her family.I thought this was a well-written story that kept me reading steadily without wanting to put it down.  I liked the way the author handled the romance story line.  It wasn’t as typical as you’d expect.  The heroine in the story is no wilting flower, she is a strong woman with a will of her own, and I liked that, as well.  The settings were well depicted, and the author pulled me into medieval times with her descriptions of homes, clothing and furnishings, as well as the mindsets of the people involved in the story.I did find quite a few editing errors, not misspellings, but wrong words used, such as barely for barley, kept for keep, etc.  There were missing words here and there, but these errors didn’t pull me out of the story completely.  This is a book I would recommend for historical romance buffs.
