Helpful Score: 1
I haven't read a historical romance in a while, and this one chose me in the Little Library on our block.
To say that I was disappointed would put it mildly. In my young adult days I inhaled this genre and I wonder if it was just this book that disappoints. The heroine managed to act both completely prudish and slutty at the same time. The plot, as it were, was crammed into the last 20% of the book and was ill-conceived. The romance was unromantic and makes you wonder how the people could like one another through her childish manipulation and his brutish, one-sided handling of the affairs. Were all the historical romances all like that?
