The story is rich in history of the era and makes you feel as if you are there among the others watching royalty go about their daily lives. I loved the way the author describes the time period and brings a bit of mystery to the story.
It is a lovely story with a bit of romance, intrigue and a book that is hard to put down. As danger surrounds Brooke once more, can anyone save her? Will Justin be her knight in shining armor?
I received a copy of this book from The BookClub Network for an honest review.
