This book really wasn’t for me but I gave it a good go.

The book is about a civil war between the King and Parliament, families and communities across England are riven by different allegiances.

Main character Jayne Swift helps both sides, dedicated to treating the sick and wounded. She witnesses the brutality of war and the devastation it wreaks.

There is kind of an enemies to lovers in a very basic sense. She keeps meeting a man called William Harrier recurring who thinks civil wars are a means to an end. He is a careless mysterious figure.

It is a tale of adventure and loss, sacrifice and love, with a unique and unforgettable heroine at its heart.

It sounds like a book that would have been really up my street but I think the book went on for a little too long and it really lost me in parts. It did have some redeeming qualities but overall it wasn’t for me.
