Give it a miss. There are far better books in which to invest your time. (

Do not be fooled by lofty descriptions of this book. This isn't some great piece of literature or a touching love story. It's just a run-of-the-mill novel with a dull plot and awkward characters. I heartily recommend that you skip it. (

A steamy guilty pleasure that is both historical and fantastical.
