My Review
This was Melissa Oliver’s second book, and it’s also the second of a series. I must confess, I haven’t read many Medieval Romances, not as much as compared to other subgenres of Historical Romance, but Melissa Oliver is getting me to join the band and go on tour.
Her first book was amazing and her second was as lovely.
Will and Isabel… I loved them! I love that Will was honorable and still broken, it made me want to hug him and help him. And Isabel was such a strong woman, I wanted to be her friend. And them together, Lord have mercy, they were cute and their interactions let me dream.
Okay, I do love a good Historical Romance because the characters take me back in time, and let me dream of romance. And I do need that, specially now. But the truth is, the author didn’t just had romance in her story. It had drama and action, and definitely secrets and flawed characters that felt very real.
Overall, you know it’s expected to have a happy ending, yet that don’t takes it away from the amazing journey we take with the characters as they grow, feel in love and fight for themselves and for what’s right and true. And Melissa Oliver gave me that and I can’t wait for her next work. I’m a fan.
