This was a fun historical romance set in the American war for independence. The heroine was plucky, if a bit rash, and I liked the male lead. The antagonist was pretty one dimensional, and I do wish sexual assault hadn't been used as a plot device. I felt as if it could have been handled with a bit more sensitivity.

This was recommended to me by my counselor because I like lists! I read it on my phone on transit, and it was great in that medium. I gave a physical copy to my mother for Christmas, I liked it so much. I'm not a huge reader of the self help genre, but it was a good time and logically organized.
