review 1: What a vividly realistic yet shockingly imaginative story. McCarty had my attention from the first and kept it throughout. Her solid writing and storytelling combined with vivid descriptions that brought this world to light and created a masterpiece. She also kept her story firmly placed within the time period in question , giving her audience the chance to travel in both time and space while falling in love her characters.The lead couple in this novel were perfect for each other. They complemented each others strengths and weaknesses while still remaining true to themselves and calling each other out when necessary. As for the female lead? She was priceless. After a while I found myself both cringing and laughing every time I heard ‘stay here, don’t get in tro... moreuble’ because you knew trouble was about to find her. The supporting cast, although not overly large, was also fairly well developed and each person served a purpose within the story. It was really nice to see a cast with a purpose. There wasn’t anyone who was there to simply increase the number of people mentioned.This was definitely a unique story. I loved it and can’t wait to read more by this author.
review 2: This was really really bad. It was so bad I laughed out loud all through it. The dialogue was ridiculous and the story was obviously copied from other books. I gorgeous Indian with a price on his and a half Chinese/ American woman marry to save each other's lives have adventures and fall in love. I don't know who is the guy on the cover. He doesn't look too Indian to me. I'm thinking Outlander gone bad. LOL less
