I loved Cat Winters first book and I have really been in the mood for a good historical novel lately.
This fits the bill AND makes book three on the Popsugar Challenge for places I want to visit (Portland being in first place). I liked the premise of this one and found the suffragettes interesting. I liked Henri. I liked Olivia. I just thought there was a lot of stuff going on in the background, none of it resolved, and not too much in the main story. I smell a sequel!
Olivia is both annoyingly scared and decades ahead in her thinking. She cowers when she sees people “as they really are”, but has the balls to do what she wants to do throughout the entire book despite the fact that it will upset her father and possibly damage her social standing. So, she is a nice, complex character. I love the real photos scattered throughout the book too.
