There were a lot of anachronisms in this book which made it hard to be fully immersed. I finished mostly for the budding romance. I was pretty disappointed with the ending, as it didn't really like up with the rest of the character motivations throughout, but the "big reveals" leading up to the end we're things that were pretty easy to guess early on. Still, it was a mostly enjoyable read. The only part that was really upsetting was the trial by fire.
