Staff:
I was expecting more of the book and even has fun and funny parts left me more cold. Becomes heavy at times, and among them there is great chemistry.
Alisoun is "virgin widow" oldest in England. What I would have liked is that the authors explain the reason. She is a cold, control your feelings and with an iron hand directs your property. It is slowly falling in love David but he knows that the only thing that matters is his fortune.
David was the champion of Henry but I have that title was taken away in a struggle for a young gentleman. He knows that is not the great warrior who once was. What I liked about this character is the great love for his daughter and how it's treated with great affection and kindness. The secondary characters are
quite interesting. We can point to Sir Walter that will have great significance and is responsible for the safety of Alisoun. Philippa Alisoun the personal maid and a great friend. Lady Edlyn which has its own book.
Global Note: 6.5
