Eh.
It wasn't exactly bad, good enough to finish without much complaint. It wasn't exactly good, the characters unmemorable, the love scenes tepid and unimaginative, the plot not particularly gripping or surprising.
Gypsy Lord offers a view of gypsy life, and from some personal research, it might be somewhat accurate. However this is offset by the particularly inaccurate view of the life of people in Regency era England, dialogue and situations that seem out of place for the time. Part of what makes historical romance fun is not just the love and sex but learning a little bit about people and the times, or the beautiful prose of a particular author. In the case of Gypsy Lord, not so much. Probably wouldn't read another by this author.
