Opinion:
Being a big fan of historical fiction, I thought that the idea of the plot was really interesting. But the author's writing style was really dry and I couldn't really get into the story, no matter how much I tried. The characters were really strong and well developed though, which made reading this a little better. I would recommend this to lovers of historical fiction, romance or fans of Jane Austen. Also, Jude Morgan does have other books out with just as intriguing plots, so I will definitely give this author another try.
