review 1: It felt unfinished. Like it was written out and the spelling errors corrected and then published with no further editing. (especially in the first 3rd) It got better as it went along.Many of the attitudes and ideals of the characters do not fit the time period. Lots of 20th century emotion. Children belonged to their fathers not their mothers. Care was determined by fathers and no doctor would have cared that a child was removed from its mother. The whole idea of childhood wasn't much thought of at that time. Also there were no woman secretaries then either.There were some unanswered questions at the end.
review 2: The anachronisms in this book drove me nuts. The development of a positive relationship of the protagonists was gradual which usually seems more tru
... moree to life. However, you are largely left to assume how Lee's heart is being effected, which is inconsistent with how he is rendered at the start of the book. It would have given the story more depth if it had shown how his heart was changed toward Annabel. As I read I kept wondering why I continued the story. It came down to the fact that I wanted to know what would happen next. It is a fairly unique storyline, and I was curious to see how it would be resolved. The resolution steps were gradual and pretty much believable and just pulled me along. less

I really love books set in the 18th century. It looks and sounds really good!
