Action-packed Historical Romance

This is a very good, interesting book. I enjoy the struggle between the main character to do right by her family but also wanting to make her own path and love an outsider. throughout she struggles with honor, and learns alot from and teachers her partner. it is a happy ending that wouldn't have felt right any other way that a tight bodied, bloody sword fight.
