Is she classified as one of those 'mistorical' authors?
I've read a number of her books and they were all three and four stars for me (3 is an average read). I'm not usually a fan of mistoricals, and it has been a while so I don't remember specifics about the books - so can't say about level of mistorical, but she writes well IMHO.

The description of the book definitely doesn't do it justice.
Oh I must have just missed the sale price on that one - will have to watch it! Thank you for pointing it out - I typically only look at their Brazen line and the synopsis sounds like something I'd totally enjoy!
