Jessamy was a lonely teacher who was confined at the Refuge for thousands of years before Galen came along.  He showed her that although she has a deformed wing, she could still appreciate the joys of life and flying.  He flies with her in his arms and promises her he'll take her wherever she wants to go. He slowly courts her and she blossoms.  Other guys don't see her as unapproachable anymore and they start to flirt with her.  I don't appreciate that she takes walks and enjoys the company of another man and leaves Galen out after he admitted how much he wanted her.  She doesn't desire the other guy in an intimate way but because she never explains to Galen her feelings for him, from his point of view, it looks like she wants to explore her new found freedom.  She broke his heart and I felt she hurt him unnecessarily.  Galen is blunt in his actions and words, but he's loyal and honorable.  She finally shows him how she feels about him and they form a loving, comfortable relationship.  But he must tend to his duties and theirs become a distant relationship.  I don't like the fact that so much time has passed with them apart; only communicating by letters.  Also, the story is too political for me and the romance is slow. I didn't realize this was a historical novel (no electricity, no jeans, etc...) This is my first Guild Hunter book by Singh and it was okay.  I think I'll stick to her Psy series.
