I really liked this book! I don't read a whole lot of historical fiction, but this was excellently done and I can't complain! The story is interesting and the characters are dynamic, and most of all historically believable! The way that backstory is introduced in the first couple pages is incredible. The author has mixed a whole bunch of tid-bits of history (both personal to the characters and the world at the time) into the story in the midst of the action without slowing it down too much, which is a common problem in historical fiction. This happens throughout as well, which is really good.

Overall, I think this book is really good. The only reason that I marked it as 4 stars rather than 5 is because I am not huge into romance, although I knew that was a main theme going into it, and I found it distracting at times. Otherwise, great book!
