"A very enjoyable read. I would recommend this to any woman between the ages of 13 and 103. Rich with historical detail, and a plot twist that is wonderfully fresh. It kept me turning the pages to figure it all out. Many of her characters just lept from the pages. "
— Christine (4 out of 5 stars)
The Silent Governess Listener Reviews

" There was a plot. But nothing was going on. Lots of description of daily activities (boring) and thoughts (even more so). Little action. "

" Julie Klassen's books are easy, summer reads. I usually like books that are more challenging to read - but, these are fun, historical fiction reads with happy endings. This is my favorite of hers. "

" This book was a little bit cheesy, and a little bit predictable, but it was a good, clean romance with a good enough plot behind it that you didn't feel like the author just filled in the blanks between the romantic exchanges. "
