While I liked this book just fine, I didn't like it nearly as much as I liked Hart's other book, [b:The Wild Princess: A Novel of Queen Victoria's Defiant Daughter|13064827|The Wild Princess A Novel of Queen Victoria's Defiant Daughter|Mary Hart Perry|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1336663347s/13064827.jpg|18230439]. Beatrice ("Baby") is not as strong of a character as Louise is. Also, despite it being entirely fiction versus merely fictionalized, Louise's love story felt much stronger to me than the "all-consuming" love of Henry of Battenburg, which did not feel realistic to a prince of the time.
Also, whoever is editing this book needs to check their historical accuracy. Every time I hit a historical error in this book (and there were a surprising amount), I cringed. Admittedly, most of them were small ones only I would notice, but they still mattered.
Overal: 3.25/5. Would recommend The Wild Princess over this book.
