A quick read, I'm a fan of historical fiction that's actually based on real people, I love going to wikipedia after finishing the book to find out the rest of the story. \

As for those who called it smutty and raunchy, she was a MISTRESS. Wiki: "A mistress is a man's long-term female lover and companion who is not married to him, especially used when the man is married to another woman." They had sex with each other and with others. So did the rest of the royal court, hello, everyone was related in some way or another. You get more raunch watching an episode of Sex and the City on TBS.
