Settled for the dislike.  This will probably be one of my shorter reviews because what needed to be said was said by other people that reviewed the book.  They were spot on.1.) This was not historical, there were too many references to modern day items, names, people and words used.  If you are going to write something you want to classify as historical, please research your time period and go with that time period.2.) Sex.. smut... steamy romance.. call it what you like. I like a book with a bit of some good scenes in it from time to time, what I don't like is you using modern day language to classify sex in a historical book.  I also don't like heros who would always want to make a mistress out of the woman, but she refuses then all of a sudden he can't live without her.  Had she chosen to be a mistress he would he would not have called off the wedding. This added no value, he should step up and give all that up for her.  Is that what romance novels about?  Two people so deeply in love they will give everything up, but not because he can't have his cake and eat it too.**SPOILER**3.) I also did not like the head games she played with him when she realized that he was actually to be her betrothed.  To say to break her engagement to his "fiance" would be to betray her and make him untrusting when SHE is the fiance.  That is just plain stupid.So yeah.. not a good read. I might try this author again with another book, but I doubt it.
