REVIEW:

I gave this book 3 stars

Sarah is a young woman with so much on her hands to take care of orphan children. She is a good person with a heart of gold, but is it enough to overcome the string of bad luck that happens with her and her love interest Byron? It is a good story, some things in the story will have you guess what is to come next. It has some passion as well as some adventure.It is a good read and one I recommend if you want some excitement to read with unexpected surprises along the way. 
 
Will love prevail? You will have to read it to see what I am talking about. A very passionate book, an interesting story and read.

Thank you to the author for the reviewers copy.

 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.
