An interesting story in several ways.
Set in 1704, partially in Wales and partially around the Battle of Blenheim in Bavaria, this is the story of a dairymaid who is tasked with caring for a viscount who has contracted smallpox (she is immune as she‘s had a mild case of cowpox). She faces class issues, unwanted advances and losing her heart, and she ends up traveling with a doctor as his nurse following the military. ⬇️⬇️
The characters are well drawn, and the mains (Elen and especially Mordiford) are shown to mature and come into their own as the story moves along. My only con is that it does seem to wrap up a little too swiftly. 4/5⭐️ #NetGalley #Canelo 5y
