It has definitely earned its place as one of the best historical novels that I have read this year. Wow, oh wow! The Captive Heart has jumped up to one of the top spots in my favorites list. Romance: Clean, although married no on-page intimacy Overall, I thought this was a great read and one I'd recommend to all my romance loving friends! There is only one thing I didn't like, but its more of a personal preference a certain character dies and I didn't think it was necessary, but I'm not really a fan of characters dying anyway. I thought it was well written, good pace that kept my attention and wanting to continue reading to see what would happen next. I liked that it wasn't insta-love, their relationship felt very natural and progressed at a believable pace. I also really liked Samuel, thought he was a complex character, but has a very caring side. She adapts pretty well to frontier life (at least waaay better than I would have), but tends to be a little hard on herself. Eleanor was a strong character and easy to like. I really enjoyed the time period (1770s) and setting. The synopsis really grabbed me on this one and was pleasantly surprised by how quickly I got sucked into Eleanor's story. Guys, I've found a new author to follow! Yay! I really enjoyed this one, great step back into 1770 America.
