This is my second read about Nell (Ellen) Gwyn whose romance with King Charles II is legend and I quite enjoyed it. According to both authors, the two were deeply in love. Nell seemed to understand the king better than any of his mistresses.
Took me a bit to get used to the writing style the author used but once I was I became caught up in the story. The author uses diary entries written by Nell for the basic story although other communications such as letters between the king and his sister and others around out the story. It's sensitive, charming and portrays a woman who is drawn to the king from the first moment she saw him. Love at first sight?
