That being said, I am a little sad about the spice, there was promise of something really good between characters but most of the scenes were fade to black or not descriptive.

I thought this book was very well written and I enjoyed the concept/plot twists which actually did surprise me. I'm just not a huge fan of historical romance in general and I did expect this book to be a lot more horny than it actually was. 

I really liked all the characters and can see why people love this book, I just expected a bit more I think.
