I will say one thing for this book, the two leads have chemistry. It practically jumped off the page but avoided the whole "I'm-going-to-rip-your-bodice-off" thing. Well done. For the most part, this book amused me. There were more than a few one-liners that had be cackling outloud. And, while Alexander kept her plot moving, chemistry steaming, and dialogue hopping, her supporting cast of characters seemed like cardboard. They were so overdone as to be Disneyified. That hurt the book as a whole. I may have loved the two leads, but I could not stand anyone else.
