I hate leaving negative reviews, and rarely do unless I really disliked a book.  And I'm sorry to say this is one I disliked. I will try to keep it simple and not overly harsh.  I hate when some reviwers are outright nasty.I found it mostly unable to keep my attention and skimmed A LOT of the book.  The heroine I thought was kind of a snob, and I never really liked her.  The hero was okay, I felt bad for him mostly.  They hated each other for most of the story which isn't that odd in romance novel, but then all of sudden BAM they are in love.  It just seemed unrealistic and forced like it needed to happen because the story was almost over.  They barely ever talked, unless it was between bouts of kissing and hissing. ;)I can see why some people would like it.  It was pretty well written, and historically accurate.  But Im one those people that would rather be entertained and feel something emotionally then have something historically accurate. It would be nice for once to see a king that didn't abuse his power and his people.  I love medieval romance but most of the king's in them are lusty bastards.  lolI would recommend this book if you like a well written story with more history and intrigue than romance.  If you are all about the romance I wouldn't suggest this book.  I will try another story by this author just because I hate to judge an author by just one of their books.
