I've only tried one Milan historical, and the many historical errors in the first two pages made me put it back.

Nothing that occurred in Unraveled struck me as historically implausible, except perhaps for the slightly wishful criminal-legal arrangements of the ending, but some of the ways in which people thought and talked about what they did kept flicking at me—I hadn't realized how accustomed I have become to narratives that match their setting with their language. I don't mean that Milan needed to write like Georgette Heyer, who had her own issues with historical accuracy, but a closer register than the one she chose would have smoothed a lot of small things for me. I know the past can sound startlingly modern, but it should never sound interchangeable. That said, I wasn't sure if I would like the novel and I surprisingly did. I am looking at others.

I much prefer her contemporaries, where her wit and strong modern voice are pluses, not negatives.

I tend not to be as interested in contemporary fiction as in historical, romance or no, but people have been recommending Trade Me and Hold Me, so I may give them a try. Data point registered!
