I was a little disappointed in this book. It's good, but didn't knock my socks off like Witchmark and the other books of the Kingston Cycle. It's a regency romance with magic, a fairly common trope, but this one more or less hits you over the head with its message about women fighting the suppression of their magical abilities by men. It was a pleasant read that didn't really take off until the end, which unraveled at a frantic pace. This book was nominated for a Nebula, but would not be my pick.
