“Entertaining from start to finish, a beautiful, complicated romance between two very engaging personalities. … I was on the edge of my seat. My favorite tale of 2016”
★★★★★
“The writing is beautifully gritty. The descriptions of the time period take you directly into each scene and don’t let you go until the chapter is over. Excellent work. Full of unexpected twists and turns.”
