Reviews"Instantly engaging, constantly suspenseful, ultimately poignant and satisfying. Loved it!" --Diana Gabaldon, author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Outlander series "Debut author Taylor adeptly blends the fantastical and the historical as she sends her reluctant heroine back to the age of Eleanor of Aquitaine in order to save her mother. Taylor's writing is bright with detail and her plot dense with action as Hope learns to be brave and resourceful when circumstances turn dire." -- Publishers Weekly "Janet B. Taylor's absorbing novel keeps the action moving with well-timed revelations, deftly drawn historical events and personages, and a sparks-flying romance."-- School Library Journal "Readers will connect with Hope and her anxiety and quest to fit into the world.
