Review: Plenty of details make this an engrossing read

I like the period in which this story was set and so that was a strong factor in why I bought this book.  The cover was what first caught my eye though and I thought the author did well to capture the time period in the cover.Felicity (our main character) is very well crafted by the author. Keep in mind this was set during the 1600’s.  Women were basically to be seen (looking nice) and keep their mouth shut (unless asked to speak).Here we have Felicity – bold, perhaps even brazen and virtually an “old maid” as she was twenty years old and no real steady suitor in sight except a flurry of beaus – and who knows how serious they really are with no formal commitment?  At the least, even an engagement would keep the tongues from wagging but that wasn’t the case.I found the characters all very well crafted and I liked Felicity instantly.  The author paid great attention to detail throughout the story and that rich attention to detail made it very easy to be swept away to the 1600s.I really liked this story a lot. I think the author could take us further along in Felicity’s adventures with additional books and hope that occurs.
