Gypsy Baron
Katherine de Vere would have given her life for king and country, but marrying a foolish fop to suit a whim of King James was another matter altogether. Especially after Kat had a taste of true passion courtesy of Stefan Dvorak, the bold, dark vagabond who stole her heart.
The English lass stirred Stefan's Gypsy blood more than he cared to acknowledge. Though he knew she was in a fix, he had more important causes on his mind: trouble was brewing in his homeland, and he answered the call to arms. But when the road he followed kept leading back to Kat, he had to wonder why he'd wasted so much time with politics....

Zzzz. Rarely do I complain that there’s too much history crammed into a Harlequin, but in this case there are way too many people, names, places, plots & counterplots. The leads should be fairly interesting, in theory, but instead of taking center stage they feel shunted around with endless to’ing & fro’ing, infodumps, + politicking; after 100 pages I was bored, & by 200 pages I felt zero investment in the outcome.
Grammatically, the writing is okay; it’s the story that put me to sleep. This era is difficult for me to begin with—post-Elizabethan through Restoration England makes my brain clock out—so combine the onslaught of names with a lack of interest, & poof! ☁️ An extremely tepid 2 stars. ☁️

The historic details were amazing--made me go search the historical facts and was amazed by the accuracy. It was a little dull but a good story.
