I thought this book was pretty good. The plot twist in the beginnig.. okay, sooooo goood!!! I was happy with that! I enjoyed how each chapter altrinated between the perspectives of Tessa and Corrick and that made the story more interesting. One thing I didn't enjoy about the book was how much castle politics there were incorporated into the story. It made it a bit confusing at times. The characters were well written and the writing was good quality. There was romance, but it was one of the two stoylines. I thought the romance was farely well written, but a bit dramatic.
Overall, I enjoyed this book amd would recommend it to anyone who likes a good romantacy!

Graphic: Violence
Moderate: Child death, Confinement, Cursing, Death, Torture, Violence, and Death of parent
Minor: Rape, Sexual assault, Alcohol, and Sexual harassment
In this book, there is a fair amount of violence with moderate discription of blood, dead bodies and death. The swearing is kept to a minimum and I remember there possibly being a few uses of damn, hell, shut, or ass. Characters drink alcohol. The romance does not go beyond kissing, but one kissing scene got a might bit "steamy". A female character stares at a male character when he removes his shirt. Sexual violence is discussed, but in no great detail.
