— RT Book Reviews (4½ stars, Top Pick!)" This book was meh for me. Stick to the end merely for the HEA. It was too preachy and there were too many many conveniences. "
— Selma, 10/2/2013" This book seemed heavy handed. There were too many conveniences and it just didn't flow right. It felt like I was reading text, not being told a story. "
— Janalynn, 6/27/2013" This was too preachy for me. Even though I agree with the author's views, I don't like blatant agendas in romance. "
— Gemma, 11/5/2012" Putney should stick to historicals. :P Romance + controversial politics = bleh! "
