I enjoy historical fiction/romance's and this author does it well. This was a free download for my kindle fire and I have really enjoyed this author's writing style and how she handles her "romances". The hero and heroine don't exactly fall in deep love at first sight. Which I feel is realistic....I understand that there is instant attraction but you don't look at someone and just know that they will be "the one" for the rest of your life. And of course the couple has sex...but it's not just gratuitous sex to just say you wrote it in there. I really feel as though there is some "romance" involved. I like the heroes...they are not jerks but likable characters with strong values. And the heroines aren't whiny brats...would also recommend another title by this author, the Raven and the Rose. This is actually the first one that I read. Now one of the couples that has a romance in this book does actually do the love at first sight thing...but it works.The author uses vocabulary well....the only little gripe I would have is that she uses the term "dryly" way too much. As in, someone will respond dryly. It seems to be the only way the characters respond to each other....she really needs to find a new way to relate how people speak to each other.
