Book Excerpt:

It required two days of marching to get to what I’d learned was a plantation, which was in the middle of nowhere. When we finally arrived at our destination, I considered how memorable my last 16 months had been since I was removed from a prince’s life. Yes, they were memorable. And even though I had a pouch full of coin hidden inside my drawers, I was now a slave on a plantation in Africa.

My review,

I just finished reading I, James and I really liked the story. It has so much description and strong characters that you almost feel that you are right there watching the whole story unfold before you. I keep rooting for Rosalind and James to finally find what they deserved. They both had to endure much horror and had a hard life. I give this book a 4/5. I was given this book for the purpose of a review and all opinions are my own.
