This was the best book out of the series and this was the best christian romance I've ever read.

I loved Deirdre sass and her fire but I would have probably loved it more if she had been a warrior like Marie. Deirdre was by far the most mature and dynamic character out of the three girls. (Marie, Riona & Deirdre.)

I loved the prophecy! I enjoyed watching on how that played into everything. I read and read and read. And enjoyed the ride.

I liked how they kept God in there but they didn't over do it.

Alric was gold. I was thoroughly impressed with how they showed that he had a mistress. Like yeah him as a 'heathen' would have had one.

Ricbert was a messed up little 'ish' like come on? Your own mother "makes your blood boil." (aka turns you on) You know that's just sick.

Ethlinda was persistent I'll give her that to hold a grudge for 30 years. I live with and sleep with the man you wanted to kill. Well three claps for you my friend.

I thought it was splendid that Winsor showed spiritual forces at work.

I was wondering where Cairell was all that time. Like he was Deidre's whole reason for traveling and after a while he just fades into the background.
Cairell trying to killing Alric for defending his sister's honor. Three claps for you sir.


All in all REALLY good book. Read if 1. You like Christian fiction. 2. You like non-smutting romance. 3. Historical Fiction.
