![]() ![]() It is sensual without being overly graphic and the violence is not overly violent (dude, if you are reading a book set in medieval times - there is going to be violence, that is how life was back then). ![]() One of the blogs I had read mentioned that there was graphic violence and sex, but I beg to disagree. The ending is really beautiful though, and not too sugary which is something else I dislike. The secondary characters are interesting and would like to know more about them, especially the 2 french orphans. (But it does!) I don't want to spoil anything so I won't go into detail, because I hate when someone gives too much of the story away. I do have to be honest, a couple of times I just wanted to smack Lady Isobel for some of her actions, but they ARE the actions of a women of that time, so it really shouldn't annoy me so. ![]() The book has a riveting storyline that intertwines adventure and history so masterfully that I dare you to put it down. The characters are interesting and not one dimensional which is something you don't often find in historical romance novels. It is a delightful light read, perfect for an afternoon at the beach, a hot bubble bath or in front of a fireplace on a cold Canadian winters night (well maybe not this years winter, but you get the picture). I have read quite a few blogs in which people have mentioned how much they enjoyed this book, and well, I am jumping on the bandwagon. ![]()
