I don’t put spoilers in my reviews, but there is one life-changing event in the story that starts the fast progression of the plot. I loved reading about the family dynamics within House Aretoli and how things change as jealousy and political intrigue take over. The story is beautifully written and filled with action and suspense. I definitely can see this book as an epic movie or sweeping mini-series. I highly recommend this book to anyone that likes historical fiction. Thanks to LibraryThing, K.M. Butler, and Fawkes Press for providing a complimentary copy of this book in hopes that I will leave my unbiased review. I was not required to leave a review, positive or otherwise, and the above review is simply my opinion of the book. ![]() Venetian merchant family Aretoli's second son maritime Captain Niccoli is on the island of Crete amid a revolt and anticipates going home to Venice & the woman he loves, Rosalia Cornaro. Unknown to Niccoli until he reaches port, his older brother Flavio has already married Rosalia in a political move orchestrated by the brothers father, whom in time realizes the error of his actions in an attempt to secure political standing and curry favor. One brother is corrupted by jealousy, power & prestige and the other brother tries to make the right decisions for his family his country and himself. The other remaining siblings are caught up in the drama & try to align themselves accordingly which is made interesting in that for this time period women in Venice were still very much under their family rule and influence.The sisters and third brothers stories are as intriguing as the main plot. As the story progresses each brother makes choices that will change the course of their family dynasty and the lives of other Venetians and themselves. I received a free advanced copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review.” ![]() ![]() The adventure continues as one brother is forced to go to a foreign land for his safety. Pirates, a war, and betrayal all around make for an exciting story. I found this book to be impossible to put down. The characters are well developed, and the ending was very satisfying. I really enjoyed this book! I thoroughly enjoyed learning about the characters as well as the customs and history of this time in this part of the world. If you like historical fiction, I think this book is for you! nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
