I love historical reads. There’s something quite magical about travelling back in time, even if it is to an era with strange ways and beliefs. The one thing that seems to have moved through time is the fear and degradation of those who are different – Whether in fantasy or reality.This book was fascinating from the very beginning and I was sucked into Selah’s world, her hopes, dreams and fears, and I felt like I walked right alongside her as this story played out in my head. There were a few surprising twists to the plot and I was drawn into the mystery of who Henry really was. He was far too noble, with fine swordsmanship skills, that I knew there was more to his story. Another mystery was the person behind the witch accusations. Nathan was just a pawn; that much was obvious – although he was despicable for taking things as far as he did – and I was intrigued to find out who the true villain was.This story was filled with passion and romance, courage and hope. It was a thrilling read that held me captive. I am excited to read more from this author.
