This book was recommended to me by a friend who told me the book was "one of the best books she has ever read"
Personally, this book did nothing for me what so ever. I did not like either of the protagonists Odaria and Rothgar. I feel like Wilkins tried to hard to make Odaria sassy and sarcastic and instead Odaria came across annoying. Rothgar was okay if a little of the cliché side of male Romance novel protagonists. The plot was okay and moved quick enough that the story did drag.

This is set in 803 A.D., a period I don't know much about so I can't intelligently comment on the historical accuracy. It did seem appropriately brutal from what little I do know about that era. The brutality was balanced by the quieter, more personal moments. I didn't especially care for the big misunderstanding near the end, but that's sort of a requirement for a romance it seems.
