Ransome's Honor by Kaye Dacus
5.0
This was a very good book. It had action, a little bit of adventure, intrigue, attempted blackmail, rescue, people turning to God with their problems, and of course love.
Julia's initial excitement to accept William's proposal, followed by her vow to hate him forever was interesting, especially when she started scolding herself and reminding herself of said vow. While I could understand William's reasoning behind not proposing when she was 17, I think he could have spared the both of them a lot of pain if he'd just explained everything to her. That being said, if he had, there would have been a completely different story and they may not have realized the true depth of their feelings for each other.
If you want to read this (which I highly recommend), I would suggest you either do it on a day when you're sick in bed or just take a day and do it. I read this in about a day and a half all told and most of the time-lag was due to the fact that I had to stop for various things.
