review 1: I really enjoyed this book. Historical fiction is probably my favorite genre and this one was a pleasant surprise. I got it as a freebie for my kindle but I was really pulled into the story. Adella was a sympathetic character and her story was the center of the novel. There were some twists and turns in the plot that kept me interested and I wanted to keep reading to see how things would turn out. Overall, a really good read.
review 2: A good romance book that reminds me of a Jane Austen (that verges into Charlotte Bronte) novel, rather than the Harlequin historical romances of today. Although the book had several grammatical errors, for the most part, author Jenna Dawlish propels readers with a plot rife with mystery, intrigue and misunderstandings of the ... moreheart. Readers who have even the slightest bit of perception will know how this love story will end. Despite that knowledge, however, one can't help but turn each page to find out how the two lovers will meet their destiny.One of the hugest criticisms I have of the book, though, is that Dawlish rushed to end the book, or a sense that she did not know how to end it gracefully. I almost gave it 2 stars because of it. Quite unfortunate, because this is the last impression that the reader will take at the end of the book. I decided to give it three stars, though, because overall, this book is a good attempt at writing historical romance akin to Austen or Bronte (though not quite so well-written as theirs). less
