I really wish there'd been a few decent reviews of this book so that I could avoided the pain of reading it. I will say that the book is decently edited and so it isn't full of mistakes and the writing isn't bad. My issue is with the story itself. The H was married off to the h when he was 18 and she 14. He then spent 4 years abroad and returns home with his mistress after his father dies and he becomes the Duke. He is in love with his mistress and she is a schemer, who intends getting him to marry her. The h is beautiful and is the toast of London. The mistress causes havoc in their relationship, whilst the H's mother and sister try to save the main characters relationship.+++Spoilers+++I hate books with infidelity and this has continual infidelity as a theme. The H has a mistress and he continues on with her after he consummates his relationship with his wife. This is a dealbreaker for me and I hated the book because of this and because of the continual pettiness between the H and h. It was the ongoing fighting and misunderstanding that really got to me though. I want to read a romance for romance and not for betrayal and mistrust. More than 90% of the book was about those things. I cannot recommend this book.
