I've read all of Jude Deveraux's historical romances and have loved all of the previous books I've read. This book was unusual in that it followed her general writing style but lacked the character development and interaction that I enjoyed in her other books. Just a few chapters into the book I looked at the cover to make sure that Jude Deveraux was actually the author as the style, although very easy to read, was almost what I would expect from a young writer who was just starting out in their career....one who does not yet have the life experience that helps contribute to character development. Towards the end of the book the plot becomes somewhat disjointed, to the point that I felt as if some of the story had been left out between two of the chapters.
