Taylor S. (sassycountess) reviewed on 10/18/2012 + 5 more book reviews

Charming, simply charming.

There are two points that I didn't like. One, is very minor and really only means something to someone that is highly tuned to architectural history. The other, however, I would have liked more information on. She contends that Robert the Bruce was a descendant of someone that came over with William the Conqueror. Because I am not a Scottish history person, I would like to have know that familial line. She did not provide that and so, I feel like it is just conjecture.

However, if you put those two points aside, you will find a wonderfully written book that pulls you into the story line of subject. I did not cry, but I almost did. I felt compelled for the heroine, and did not like the first husband, and fell in love with the second. So, it was indeed worth the read.
