Title: I was very pleasantly surprised by this book
Review: I actually groaned when I realized the historical setting for this book -- not my usual choice. But, since I was ready for something different, I dived in. I'm very glad I did.Feather has created a thoroughly convincing setting, ripe with historical detail and enough actual fact to make the reader buy the whole without difficulty. Owen is a thoroughly fascinating hero -- so deliciously yummy! And tortured, too. Pen is a complex character, a woman dealing with a great deal of pain and understandable resentment. Only Owen is able to break through that to the warm woman she once was. Political intrigue, dangerous alliances, spies and plots, and a conniving set of in-laws mix with the romance to yield a truly engrossing book.While Feather isn't my favorite author, I do like her for something different. This book was just the thing. If possible, I'd rate it 3.8 stars. I'll be reading the rest of this set.
