As is often said, to make a good novel, it is not the number of pages that count but the history. Well, I must say that this saying on easily for this item. Loved this unexpected history. It is a romance on historical background, rich in detail. Captivating story with courageous heroines, full of strength, spontaneous and determined and willing to do anything for love. The writing is fluid. The author takes us back in time (I do a little wink to the movie "Back to the Future"). It focuses on the main characters but also to the side such as Cecilia, Juliet and Julius, this dark and handsome lord. I have not managed to read it in one sitting is as the book is thick enough but I nevertheless devoured. I spent great moments of reading and highly recommend it, especially to those who are fond of books that take place in Scotland.
