[..] it‘s a love story, but not a mindless or predictable one. Macleod plants many red herrings and deals out plot twists without breaking a sweat.

Third and multiple povs,excellent grammar, pleasant rhythm.
The characters are well-rounded, even the minor ones, and they sound realistic. I don‘t like to suspend my disbelief too much, especially when it comes to historical novels.

All in all, an enjoyable read.
