Thank you to Entangled for giving me an arc of this!
When I saw the cover, I knew I HAD to get this and read it. It’s so lovely to see women who look like me on historical romance novels and it means a lot to me, even at my age.
One of my favorite things about this book is that we get the source of conflict at the very beginning and we are able to see the way it unfurls. I really loved the way these characters were fleshed out, especially Hettie and Finn. I do think that perhaps I would’ve liked to see Phillip fleshed out a bit more but other than that I found this book to be enjoyable.
I loved the tension between Hettie and Finn, it felt palpable. Whether it was part of the conflict or the desire that they had for one another.
I also really enjoyed how the situation between Finn’s mother and Hettie was resolved.
I’ll definitely be recommending this to others!
