I really enjoyed this book. The writing is fluid and easy to read, so even if the book runs a little long at over 500 pages it's still a fairly quick read. For jumping back and forth between multiple storylines the plot still moves forward quickly and easily. I loved the "main" character of Jordan Scott, and the way the two stories intertwined in the end was well-pulled off. I would recommend this book to any historical fiction fans.
