I was a recent giveaway winner for this book, Thank you to the author, Sarah Lark!

I must admit that it was a slow start and I had a hard time getting into it, but it turned out to be a good mix of historical fiction, romance, and thrill. I seethed with annoyance and anger for a few characters, which shows how well conceived they were. I wish there had been less sexual abuse and violence towards the women, but also I am very aware that of the timeframe of the book.

Overall, I really enjoyed the read and will recommend to friends.
