A beautiful novel full of adventure, heartache, and true love. The characters were well-developed and easy to love (or hate, depending on the character). The plot was exciting and it kept me guessing up until the very end. I literally could not put it down!!!Exciting read! The author beautifully meshed history and fiction creating a phenomenal work.This story is so captivating that I didn't want to put the book down. It is intriguing, leaving you spellbound, emotionally charged, and curious about what will happen next. Definitely worth a read.
