In the resplendence of William the Conqueror's London court, the lovely Saxon captive Lady Nicholaa was forced to choose a husband from the assembled Norman nobles.

The Secret by Julie Garwood My rating: 4 of 5 stars awal awal baca bukunya aku pikir bakalan cuma ngasih 2 atau 3 bintang. habisnya sampe pertengahan alurnya lambat banget, dan aku hampir ngga setuju sama review temen2 d goodreads yg bilang bagus. well, hari ini setengah bukunya nyaris gak bisa berhenti dibaca sebelum habis. Akhirnya setengah lebih aku memutuskan untuk memberi 4 bintang, dibeberapa halaman berikutnya menjelang akhir aku mulai bingung kasih 4 atau 5 hingga akhirnya mengingat betapa bosannya aku di awal buku, aku memutuskan 4 cukup untuk buku ini. Jujur aku agak sulit ngikutin gaya penulisannya yang kalimatnya cepat banget selesai. Dan juga pengulangan subjek yang sama dalam satu paragraf seolah sedang menjelaskan hal yang baru padahal itu kalimat penjelas. Oke, cukup untuk tata bahasanya, dan kebosananku di awal awal cerita. Pada akhirnya aku menyukai perkembangan hubungan antara Judith dan Iain beserta chemistry mereka. Karena aku cukup sering bertemu deng...
