REVIEW:
I rated this book 4 stars. The writing
was solid and readable minus some typos. It starts off slow but it has a
very historical feel to it where it brings you back in the time era
that it is writing in. The romance
is very adventurous and very different from what I have read in the
past. It was engaging to follow the characters through their adventure.
It bring you to France from England where the voyage begins.
Cassandra
Lamb, is a the small villagers pastor's daughter. She was promised to
someone than rather than love. She wanted to marry for love not
because she has to, the person she was promised to was an Earl of
Everton the would bring wealth and money once a child was born after
marriage. But she had an obligation to her village and her father.This story will keep you
reading to see what will she chooses and what else may lie in her future.
The author keeps you on your toes and there are also some steamy sex parts. A good read a on cold winter's night.
I received a free copy for an honest review. Thank You to the Author. K.Sheffield.
