Now this is partly a problem of expectations as I went in expecting a romance, only for it to turn out to be a Western. I had mixed feelings about the brothel setting: all the characters therein were interesting as supporting players, but I didn't like how young the main character was, even if that is "historically accurate." As this is a modern book for modern audiences, I wish that she had been aged up to at least 18. The sapphic element was great to see in a historical novel; I just wish that I had known that it wasn't a romance before going in.
