This was a relaxing, enjoyable read. I participated in a “blind date with a book” and the librarian picked this out for me, knowing I love historical fiction and had recently enjoyed By Her Design. 
This one wasn’t quite as rich a story, but I still enjoyed It nonetheless. 
Some of the love stories seemed forced and unnecessary and the
rape scene
took me quite by surprise.
