review 1: hmmmm. i'm honestly not sure what to make of this book. part of me found is a beautifully written, historical romance. another part of me found it simply...inappropriate.maybe i'm too stuck in the current day expectations of what makes an acceptable pairing, speaking mostly of age, but i was a bit creeped out by the dynamics of the relationship in this story.you'll have to read it to decide for yourself, however, i won't be the one to recommend it.
review 2: This book had three of my favorite things going for it: a "Beauty and the Beast" influenced story line, exquisite prose, and atmosphere...atmosphere...atmosphere.I absolutely loved it. The characters were sympathetic, engaging, and beautifully drawn. The story drew me in and held me, which is impressive
... moreas its quite a small book. That's its one fault though...I only wish it had been longer. Sequel? Prequel? Please? less

Predictable. I kept hoping it would get better but it never did.
