Honestly just got bored and am no longer interested in the story. As of where I stopped (the beginning of Chapter 12) the past few chapters and this one feels choke full of sex, and I’d rather the story get on to them going to Savannah to save her children. I’m now no longer interested in even getting to that part because all the sex feels like filler.

5.0

If you are looking for a fast-paced, action-packed historical romance look no further. This felt like a movie. Just be aware of the dark themes around slavery present throughout and the escapism history present in the finale.
5/5 from me🥰
