A couple things to note, before beginning my review. I knew this book was part of a series, but I didn't realize that it is the last book in the series (and yes, I just realized that it actually says that in the description) - and I haven't read any of the other ones. That seemed very important, the further into the story I read (especially as more characters were added). Also, this book seems to be a little longer than a novella, but not nearly as long as a typical novel, so parts of it seemed very rushed to me.
So, those notes aside, I really enjoyed this story! I liked Grace and Sampson right away, and who wouldn’t love tiny Ruby? I loved Sampson’s family and how they welcomed Grace with open arms. I appreciated Grace’s strength and determination to help with the problems they were faced with. I enjoyed how the author set the stage to tell this final story and how she wove each of the prior characters into the story, though I didn’t know that until after reading it and going to search out the other books. If I had been a loyal reader who had followed the entire series, I believe I would have found the ending exceptionally satisfying, with what seemed to be all of the loose ends tied up neatly. Having not read the other books, I did still quite enjoy how it came to a close.
Overall, I would highly recommend this book if you are looking for a quick historical read with a sweet romance and adventure. I would also probably suggest trying the other books first, so you would have the further depth of characters that I was missing a little bit.
