The Lady and the Lionheart by Joanne Bischof

”The sights, sounds and people of a turn-of-the-century circus come alive in this novel that captivates from word one. Every sentence is pitch perfect, while the characters embed themselves soul deep. Charlie Lionheart is the hero of heroes and a reflection of the fairy tale ”Beast.” He is so brilliantly multidimensional that he could easily live outside the pages. The romance between Charlie and Ella is heartachingly beautiful, and the redemption organically sewn into the story’s tent flaps will linger with readers for years.” —RT Book Reviews 

My two cents: I could not put this book down. Gave it a 10 in almost every category. Simply beautiful writing. I was thrilled to see it win the 2017 Christy for Historical Romance.
