The book was a perfect blend of romance, power struggles, and rich historical details. It transported me to the French court, where I could witness the beautiful dresses and dances.
Marie's character was well-developed, and her growth from a naive to a smart, strong, intelligent, and cunning woman was impressive. In the end, she made the best decision, which was a perfect conclusion to their love story.
The King's character was charming, likable, and idealistic. His response when reality struck was appropriate and understandable.
Their relationship was realistic and believable. Although based on a real-life affair, the author used creative license in constructing the characters and their actions. Every action they took had a clear purpose, and the story flowed seamlessly.
