Overall a good smut free period romance. I really enjoyed the characters and the description of the island.
I was planning to read more from this series but I got very annoyed when the main character went from mentioning God a handful of times to becoming an extremely faith driven woman overnight. It was a little heavy handed and the last 1/3 of the book the FMC became almost insufferable.
I was also annoyed at the "turning on the fan" when this all seemed to be before the invention of electricity. There were a few small things like that took me out of the fantasy.
It was a quick read and overall rather light-hearted with happy endings for several characters that I did enjoy
