My favorite Wynchester to date. A rare 5 stars.
An action adventure mixed with historical romance. Elizabeth is a hoot, a warrior, beserker (love this word), scared, emotional toddler. Her trip from needing no one to being totally 100% in love is a rollercoaster ride. Stephen the reclusive tinker is so cute you want to hug him. Making an elaborate Rube Goldberg machine to make tea is a true tinker pastime. He goes from being happy and resigned to being alone to wanting to be with Elizabeth night and day. His tragic childhood rivals Elizabeths in ugly cry factor, it's all sad. The story is wacky, the characters are wacky, the witty conversations are laugh worthy. The plot is so out there, you'll love the way it unfolds, and the secondary characters are all wacky too. I'm using wacky a lot but it's on par with a screwball comedy. I laughed out loud a couple of times. An enjoyable read from start to finish.
It's nice to catch up with the other Wynchester characters and know that all is ok. Looking forward to Jacob having his own adventure, with his animals by his side has to be interesting.
