4.0
This is a beautifully researched piece of historical fiction with a compelling protagonist and an interesting setting and supporting cast. The romance was very iffy for me. Logan did not have a big regard for consent, and the entire romance happened far too quickly and far too messily for my taste. But overall the book satisfied and I will be reading more Beverly Jenkins FOR SURE.
