Weh-heh-heh-heh-hel! Ms. Bev, I do believe I love this book. Besides it being one of the most entertaining and interesting history lessons, it’s chock full of intriguing characters, and a swoon worthy romance.
This is my third Beverly Jenkins novel and so far my favorite. I don’t know if I can articulate what draws me to this story more than the others. All three of the FMCs are strong, which is typical of Ms. Bev’s novels. While her leading men are always worthy counterparts, Drake is something special. He’s multitalented, able to garden, work construction, smith work; he’s smart and brave; he’s got integrity and is honest. And on top of it all, he’s a hunky specimen of a man. He brings with him a family that is as wonderful as he is, headed by his independent mother filled out by a band of brothers and a sister-in-law that are just as faithful.
The drama just kept coming and built until the very end. It wouldn’t have mattered if it had been the middle of the night, there was no stopping me from finishing this book! there were so many highlights, but I don’t want to spoil it for those who haven’t read it. Just know that this book is full of surprising details sprinkled throughout a tightly woven plot. Loved!
