The hero is a complete asshole and is unforgivably awful to the heroine. The heroine is a spineless doormat. Actually, I think I know where Stephanie Meyer gets her inspiration from... Basically, I would hate for any girl to read this and think it is what love should be like. But, for me personally, there is something that resonates. I had someone I loved tear me down in a not dissimilar manner to what the heroine in this book experiences. There is part of me that found satisfaction in the hero coming to terms with his betrayal of the heroine. However, he is still a jerk and I can't bring myself to forgive his behavior. näyttää 3/3 ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
Heartstoppingly romantic, dangerously sensual, and filled with the vivid details that bring an era to life, Suzanne Robinson's captivating novels have made her one of the reigning stars of historical romance. In this spellbinding love story Suzanne Robinson offers one of her most unforgettable heroes ever . . . The ladies of the palace called Nora Becket "mouse." But beneath her shy, artless ways hid the heart of a lioness. A daring spy in Queen Mary's court, she risked her life to rescue the innocent from a terrible fate. Yet it was Nora who needed rescuing when cutthroats attacked her--and when Christian de Rivers, a lusty, sword-wielding rogue, swept her out of harm's way . . . and into his arms. As magnificent and mesermizing as a hawk, Christian both frightened and excited Nora, even as he pursued her with a single-minded passion that left her longing to be caught. Yet soon she would discover that she had reason to be frightened. For the dashing nobleman had his own secrets to keep, his own enemies to rout--and his own brand of vengeance for a wide-eyed beauty whom he loved only too well. . . .

On re-read: I still relate so much to the heroine's experience of being wrongly accused and betrayed by the hero to not feel deep satisfaction in reading this. I liked the grovel, but
On re-re-read, though, I am much more satisfied with the grovel. To be fair, he does work for it. Sure, there should have been more, but in Romancelandia, heroes never quite get their comeuppance, and the bar for remorse and repentance on their part is quite sadly low. This has some nice moments of regret. ( )
