A desperate noblewoman, a rebellious peasant, and a
forbidden love. While fleeing an arranged betrothal to a heartless lord, Lady
Isabelle becomes injured and lost. Rescued by a young peasant man, she hides
her identity as a noblewoman for fear of reprisal from the peasants who are
bitter and angry toward the nobility. Cole Warwick cannot turn his back on a
person in need and soon finds himself falling for Izzy, the gentle and
beautiful runaway who is mending in his cottage. As the leader of an imminent uprising
against the nobility, he tries to resist his growing feelings for Izzy to
protect her from the dangerous life he’s chosen. But the longer she stays, the
more he hopes she’ll never leave. When Izzy’s true identity is revealed, Cole
feels betrayed. With the rebellion underway, can Cole forgive Izzy and find a
way to save her from an unhappy marriage? Or will he and his peasant army be
destroyed before he has the chance to fight for the people and the woman he
loves? “...heart-stopping . . . will make a solid addition to any YA romance
collection.” School Library Journal
My Thoughts:
I have loved this entire series, any ya medieval book written by Jody Hedlund, I will read. And I've heard that this is supposed to be the last book in this series, but I hope Hedlund decides to write more young adult books.
It was so fun to see Izzy get her own story and stop living in the shadow of her sister. As much as I love Olivia, I've always had a soft spot for the younger sisters. And I was so pleased to see Cecil again! I love him to pieces.
This is probably my least favorite book of the series, though I enjoyed it immensely. And I think it was because of Cole. He was an okay hero, but I didn't really connect with him. I really liked Posy and Thea though.
On a whole, this book- this entire series- is so good, sweeping and dramatic and romantic. I'm serious, go read all of them.
I received a free copy of this book from the author, all opinions, however, are my own.
