Welcome to the Romance Winner for Book Talk Radio Club Awards 2018!

This book, the second one in this series,  is set in the 1830s in England and France and has all the elements that romance lovers – love! There is plenty of intrigue, picturesque settings, nobility, and scheming.

This book reminded me of all those horse books loved and devoured by middle school girls – but that had matured into an adult pleasure read (pun intended!)

This, however, is not one of those quick reads as there are a lot of characters (and variations on their names) so slow down, enjoy the relaxed pace and the story.
