![]() ![]() ![]() First is that the male lead, James, is suffering what we today would recognize as PTSD from witnessing the horrors of war. There are two things which make me say this book is slightly weaker than The Other Countess, however. It's good for the same reasons (those being that it's well written and pretty smart, the main characters are all quite likeable, the ending is happy, and there's some substantive content about broader social issues and the world) and weak in the same way (that it's a little bit problematic in its genre ambiguity - being more serious than a Romance, more YA than a Historical, and more historical than a YA novel). Basically, I would just re-direct you to my review for The Other Countess, the first in a series of books about the Lacey brothers, in which The Queen's Lady is second. ![]()
