I loved this book, just as I did the first in the series, "Holding the Fort." This story had me, literally, bursting out laughing at all hours of the night! I loved the humor, history and action sequences. The storyline hooked me from the get-go and was very intriguing!
Author Regina Jennings is an EXCELLENT storyteller! She has written a keeper here! Jack was a very unique and lovable hero, while Hattie was a vulnerable, yet determined, heroine. A recipe for a beautiful romance and an INCREDIBLE story!
Regina Jennings has fast become one of my go-to authors for a good laugh and I always enjoy whatever premise she dreams up! She doesn't use your run-of-the-mill storylines, but rather comes up with unique ideas, usually based on some piece of history that is little-known and ripe to be expounded upon!
I just can't say enough about the pleasure I derived from this book! It was SOOOO good! Definitely worth the read! (And I'm SUPER excited for and looking forward to the next book in this series, "The Major's Daughter"!)
