I enjoyed this one
The first quarter I wondered whether this story would rise above clichés. I found the male MC a stereotype. But quickly they developed to people who adjusted, changed their opinions and talked about issues before I was annoyed by the miscommunication.
The last chapters were a surprise, for me. We got a happy couple expressing their love for a while and staying below my limit for cheesy dialog. Even the sex I found tasteful.
The end was full of new characters I did not know were mentioned before. They suddenly showed up and alliances were discussed I did not get.
The narrator I had to get used to, but did a good job.
On to the next!

Enjoyable story
I enjoyed this story, and the plot developed enough to truly hold my attention until the end, rather than being tepid like many historical romances. I liked how the characters grew through the story, too.

Pretty standard
Absolutely.. as expected. Not a shocking twist to the story, nor a huge disappointment. It was well written, but utterly cliché. If you like mushy with a little bit of smut, then this is the book for you. You know what you’re going to get. Slight angst before everything comes good at the end. But not so much that you worry for them..
You won’t be on the edge of your seat, but you probably won’t be bored enough to switch it off. It’s essentially a Sunday afternoon movie on a rainy weekend. Reasonably enjoyable
