My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is my fourth Holly Bush book, and indeed she has delivered yet again. If you are searching for historical romances with imposing female characters, swashbuckling leading men, romantic scenes, and copious humor along the way, you need look no further! These books promise exactly what they deliver.

First of all, let me give you a few cautions concerning this book. There is some profanity and some intimate scenes (nothing in great detail). In fact, this probably has a bit more profanity than her other books, but I can’t say I was too bothered because of how the words were used. Holly Bush does not mince words when the situation calls for it. And she is not apprehensive when it comes to tackling what would have been taboo topics back in the day.

The interactions between Gert and Blake are absolutely delectable! Sometimes love can be found in the most inconceivable places and even the most implausible times. Add the clashes between American and English culture, and things are in place for a showdown of the wills. And the reader has a front row seat for this entertaining battle!

I recommend this book highly to those who relish historical romances. It is my second favorite book by this author so far (“Train Station Bride” is still my favorite by her). It is worth the time invested in reading this book, and I look forward to the next installment by this author in any genre!

I was sent a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. I was not financially compensated, and all opinions are 100 percent mine.
