Let me first say that Susanna Kearsley is MY FAVORITE AUTHOR. EVER. No one will ever surpass her for me. I reread her books yearly. I loved her Winter Sea so much that I almost carry it with me everywhere, like a comfort blanket as a child does. I always recommend everyone read all of her books. But this newest one is absolutely superb. When "The King's Messenger" is published, RUN to the bookstore and stock up, because it truly is the best. What a fantastic work of breathtaking romance, Scottish history, and adventure! (Outlander fans rejoice!)
I truly say that I will read anything she writes, even the side of a cereal box. I am off to read it again, but it was so, so, so good.

Susanna Kearsley books are always an automatic read for me. The kings messenger was wonderful! Written in multiple pov and with just a touch of fantasy in a historical setting, and an enemies to lovers romance this did not disappoint.

This was the first book I've read of this author's, and I will now have to track down more books of hers to read! I really enjoyed this book, it was hard to put down (but one has to sleep sometime, even if it is for a couple of hours). I really like that although there's the romance, it does not take over the plot by any means. I also really enjoy the historical and political aspects of this book, it really gives the reader a vivid setting that our characters are navigating. She really put in the effort on research for this book, which really added to it's value, and I love it!!
