Gill Paul NEVER disappoints

I’ve waited for this new release since reading The Secret Wife 2 yrs ago. Not only is her literary skills perfect, her gift to intertwine real history and fictional characters is mind blowing. I’ve read all of Paul’s books and not one ever disappointed me! This one was just as amazing as her others! My only disappointment after reading/listening to novels is them ending and me having to wait on her next one! 😭

Amazing

I struggled with the abuse in the beginning. I almost stopped listening to the book; however I kept going and loved this book! I couldn’t put it down the last few hours. I would highly recommend this book. Amazing insight into a time in history not well documented from this lens.

love the love story

Mingling the love story and historical events together is absolutely wonderful. knowing that people adopt to their situations to survive and that surviving is encouraging.!

Hard to get into but worth it

I really enjoyed this book although the first few chapters I found very hard to get into and almost gave up. Glad I didn’t, good storyline with some historic facts that highlighted how awful the whole Romanov execution and Russian way of life was at that time.

What could have been

I read the other Romanov Princess book by the same author and really enjoyed the "what if" aspect of the story. when I saw that this one followed another daughter I was interested. I also like that this story mentions Tatiana's escape as it played out in the other book as well. The murder of the family was absolutely deplorable. Gill Paul's books on this topic provide a hopeful look at what could have been.
I enjoyed going through the two timelines and hearing accounts of Maria's life based on letters and notes. This was a well written book that was interesting and full of emotional swings. I also liked the narrator. There were times where the tone of voice was so calm and soothing that I tuned out and had to back up the audiobook to listen again.
