Review: self-pitying heroine with annoying self-destructive behavior

The plot is an old one.  The hero (Stephen) cannot remember the last few months and cannot remember or believehe married Emily, who claims she is his wife.  I liked the basic plot, but could not stand theheroine.  Emily is continually baiting Stephen while at the same time worrying he will thorw her out.She makes jokes about poisoning him, claims they never slept together, ...  Also there is a badlybehaved nephew of Emily, whose bad behavior is never disciplined by Emily.  Emily is not forth-comingto Stephen about what she knows when he is desperate to know what is going on.Also as has been noted in another review, there is little of the 19th century in the story, i.e.,the people act as if it is the late 20th century.
