review 1: I really enjoyed this book (it only took me a day to read) but I also found a lot of things that frustrated me.First off, the editing is horrible! There are so many typos it was hard to get through sometimes. Second, I cannot figure out the point of the present-day story. I found myself skimming whenever the book changed to it, glancing to see if there was anything important that added to the book. Nothing. Third, I feel like there were so many questions left unanswered and ideas unfinished. Did Steele kidnap the girls? What happened to the girls that escaped the brothel? What happened with Rita? Mercy wanted a more appropriate proposal to know that marriage wasn't being suggested just to make things right. It wouldn't have hurt to have added in an "I love you" at the very... more least. Overall, despite me feeling unsatisfied, I really did like the book and would have given the book more stars if there hadn't been an unnecessary modern-day plot.
review 2: Free Kindle.3.5 starsThe story took me awhile to get the characters straight--going back and forth between generations. It is a historical fiction/romance taking place in 1889 in Seattle. Mercy is trying to shut down a brothel that is frequented by the wealthy, connected men of Seattle. It has a lot of action and suspense. I would have given it 4 stars, if it weren't for the numerous grammar and typo errors throughout. I also would have like to learn what happened to some of the other characters in the epilogue. Otherwise, I great debut book. less
