Living with a brain tumour, reading for therapy, mum of two, optimist, too old to read YA. My Gran used to get me Mills&Boon books from the library when I was off school sick and it stuck with me.

    Four times now I have read about Bash “running his tongue over his teeth.” It’s getting weird.

    Rereading because I originally read this last year whilst recovering from brain surgery and I can’t remember a bloody thing about it! The four stars I gave it gives me hope that it’s because of my surgery addled memory and not because the book itself was unremarkable 🤞🏻

    I enjoyed the love story here, and the character growth (Cord in particular). I did not love the violence, racism, miscommunication and boring family drama. It was all tell, not enough show. A gritty tale for sure, but I don’t think western historicals are for me.

    Not my fav T Kingfisher but I still had a wonderful time. The way her mind works is absolutely incredible although I did start to find the mirror mechanics a bit confusing after a while (that might be my chemo brain though!). This one reminded me a bit of Thornhedge which I loved.
