I haven‘t read a straight up romance novel in quite a while, and I‘m so glad I finally came back around! I really rooted for the main characters, and enjoyed the historical elements. #romance #middleages #historicalfiction #jewishfiction #jewish

Medically-minded Gentile lady of a castle meets a nice Jewish Doctor and forbidden love blossoms. Radically opposing cultures, mad sisters, angry fathers and of course, the plague decimating all of medieval Europe, provide a handful of the conflicts facing the star-crossed lovers of 14th century Strassburg.
