This is a perfect introduction to historical romance. The audiobook was spectacular. Like most people reading this series now, I picked up the book after reading the series. I do like the TV series more, but that was bound to happen with as beautiful as it is. You do need to really prepare yourself for the “why don’t you put a baby in me/her already” because it comes up a LOT. I know that was just the mindset of the time, but this book tends to pound that idea in more than other historical romances.  

 

 

 

 

 

 I would round this book up to 3.5 stars solely based on the ending. This was a tough book to get through, because the first 60% was so boring. The story just seemed to ramp up out of nowhere and I really enjoyed the ending. Unfortunately, I would have never made it to the ending if I was better at DNFing books I don’t enjoy.  The premise of this book is fantastic. I’m just disappointed that the first half of the book isn’t more enjoyable.
