Title: This is Historical???
Review: I don't know where Ms. Henley's editors were on this book - probably asleep. The dialogue for this 13th century romance is way out of time. Phrases she has used, such as "cut to the chase" and "a helluva a woman" are straight out of the 20th century. I thought the whole point of historical romance was to immerse yourself in that time period, including how the characters would speak. I frankly didn't care for any of the characters, including the lead characters. The times when Jane Leslie was dreaming about the lynx in the forest suggested a hint of bestiality to me. There was no suspense for me in the plot and I simply could not in any concsience recommend this book for anyone.
