"It wasn't until I read the message from the author at the end of the book when I realized it was one of the main characters in which she retrieved much of the historical based info. If I had know that starting the book I think I would have enjoyed it even more!"

"I enjoyed everything about this book. I had a hard time putting it down at the end. It had a little bit of everything and very enjoyable characters to read about. I could write more but don't want to give anything away. If you're looking to read something with a little bit of romance, mystery, and historical fiction this is the book. "
