I really enjoyed this book. I am no historical romance aficionado, so I cannot tell you whether the details regarding the period are correct, but I can say that the author developed an interesting story line. The fact that this was a heroine I could really get behind helped tremendously.Myriah is no shrinking violet and does not suffer from the usual 'heroine insecurities' of 'what does he see in me'. But neither is she bratty and self-centered. She is soft-hearted, brave and honest with her feelings, at least when it matters most.Set in 19th century England, this is the story of Myriah, a young lady whose father is impatient for her to marry. When faced with the prospect of being forced to marry a man she does not love, she runs away, intending to go to her grandfather's house. But she and her servant become lost on the way and the real adventure of her life begins.If you enjoy a sweet love story, likable characters, and a light sprinkling of sexual tension, I think you'll enjoy Myriah.
