Early Reviews
- ...a terrific novel, filled with details that make it impossible not to immerse yourself in the period. This author creates imagery so un-forcefully, it flows very gracefully. The plot was easy to follow, filled with wonderful surprises and amazing detail.
--Sarah Tronson, LibraryThing
- Characters defying convention, a heroine with a strong will, beauty and grace. A rake learning devotion and how to love. This was my first book by this author and since then I have purchased every book that she has written.
--Viv Ng, iBooks USA
- ... reads like an historical adventure romance of the Scarlet Pimpernel variety and era... the author brings to life the Court of Versailles with its gilded hallways and twittering powdered courtiers. A well-written page turner!
--Pepper, Goodreads
- This romance deserves to be read more than once! There is so much to enjoy and savor; the glittering court of Louis XV's Versailles, the complexity in the characters both good and evil, the wonderful dialogue, the high adventure and of course the deeply poignant romance between Roxton and Antonia.
