What a wonderful story filled with so many historical facts. The author sweeps readers away to the 1860s where war was rampant and food was sparse. I loved Sophie because she was gutsy, smart and loved her country. I was pleased to read that she had a secret that people would be shocked at. It wasn’t easy during this time period to get word to Generals unless someone was brave enough to soy on the enemy and report back. Who would guess that a young beautiful woman would be a spy?
Major Brent was brave, handsome and quite suspicious of Sophie. He is captivated by her charm but can she be trusted? He knows that Sophie has been warned about spying and he wants to keep her safe. Sophie knows that danger is close by and wants to heed the warning of being caught. Her punishment would be hanging and she certainly doesn’t want that to happen. Will she do one more job or say no to keep herself alive?
The story is short but filled with adventure , danger and secrets that kept me intrigued till the end. Will Sophie get caught? Will Major Brent keep Sophie safe or turn her in? This is a must read for everyone that loves historical fiction and anyone looking for a great story with great characters and a secret hidden among the pages.
I received a copy of this book from TBCN and the author. The review is my own opinion.
