@Topcho I cannot speak to the historical accuracy of the novel, but it did have a long time ago feel. I am a huge fan of historical and supernatural romances too! This book was very fun.Topcho wrote:Sounds like one of those quite inaccurate in historical terms, but still fun to read books I actually enjoy those quite a lot! When it comes to romance novels, I love the supernatural and historical romance. I also find that I prefer the spn romance to be more engaging, while the historical to be more light and fun. So it seems like a great book for me!

@dipdrops2003 It is very fun. There are some sad moments that happen in the beginning. There are some very steamy and sexy scenes. I highly recommend it.dipdrops2003 wrote:Great review! I am a sucker for a good romantic book and after reading your review, it seems this book fits the description of a good, fun, romatic book that I need to look into reading.

@joanofarc2015 I am not sure how accurate it is to the time period, but it did feel long ago and far away. You'll have to read it and let me know.

Thank you! @thiocyanate Part of the problem may be that I am not as familiar with politics of the 13th century. It feels like the author assumes that the reader has some prior knowledge of the time period.thiocyanate wrote:Great review, bluemel4! The title IS intriguing and your review made me want to read this book. Everything I'm looking for in a historical romance! Though I think this might be the case for me too.

Thank you! @TanayaTanaya wrote:Sounds like a great book, besides those few distracting things that you mentioned. I enjoy well-crafted, humorous dialogue. I am also interested in Meredith's character development. My feelings about historical fiction change constantly, but this sounds like a book I would enjoy reading. Great review!
I can't wait to hear about what you think of the book.

I like the book cover. I think it looks sweet and romantic.
