3.5 stars. I really enjoyed this one, but I knew I would after reading the prequel novella, Whisper Of Jasmine. I loved both main characters, but I think my favorite had to be Evie's Aunt Dove. I would absolutely love to read about some of her adventures from her younger days. I enjoyed the mystery/adventure, and the author's descriptions of the setting were incredibly well done. I also liked the tie-ins to the characters from Raybourn's A Spear of Summer Grass (which I absolutely adored). 
 There were a couple of things I didn't care for, which is why I only gave it 3.5 stars. It sometimes felt like there was a bit too much going on, and the plot got... convoluted. I also had trouble believing that Evie was emotionally connected at times, despite the first person POV. 
 Still, it was an enjoyable read, and I look forward to any future books from the author. 
 *I received an ARC from the author through a Goodreads giveaway. This has no bearing on my thoughts about the book.
