Hearts Aflame by Johanna Lindsey

4.0

This is a book that I unexpectedly liked. It was a book that I fell for and I was addicted to it. I really loved reading about it and waiting to finish the book. So the main character is a Viking and gets captured by Saxon people. She calls the man that she falls for Saxon all the time. Kristen is a girl who is strong and doesn't need help from men. She is straight-forward and tells what she thinks. I really liked her character and I really think women from back then should be more like her. I also liked her mother as well. She has a feisty character. I think I need to read the first book because I am missing out on something. If I liked this book then I think I might like the story about Kristen's parents. Now I think I really liked Royce. He isn't the type of character that forces women and degrades women. He is a man that I would want. I also liked Kristen's family and I think that what I think about Vikings isn't true and I need to read more historical books.
