My rating: 5 of 5 stars

An enjoyable and engaging historical romance which had me hooked from page one. The author manages to bring a period of history vividly to life with her descriptive narrative and historical details, which made me feel immersed in the era and the setting. Set in a time when white men had black slaves and black women could not say no to a white man, this is South Carolina in 1864. Slave Penny is sold to Leon Falcon, who decided to buy her because he wanted her. Leon’s plan was to buy her, teach her and then take her, but he soon discovers that Penny has her own plans.
Although Leon has slaves he does look after them and he soon finds himself falling in love with Penny. However, their relationship is unheard of at that time and they face many obstacles, but they love each other and are determined that they will not be separated. I loved Penny as a character, she’s strong and determined and very likeable and relatable. The chemistry between her and Leon sizzles off the page and I liked how there relationship developed despite the obvious complications. This is a heartwarming and at times heartbreaking romance which I literally could not put down.
