I liked this novel much better than the previous one in the series.The story is better developed and the characters are more pleasant. At the beginning Ethan is very far from the usual hero; he's spoiled, reckless and ruthless in his pursuing a woman for her dowry. But very soon he shows a respectable side and some restraints and he found himself trapped by Ghita's scheming as much as Lily. Lily, on the other hand, is a bit annoying at the beginning, refusing to see what little good it seems to be in her forced marriage and crushes the entire weak basis there might be. It is believable, though, given how little she knows her husband and how bad are the few information she's got. Ethan and Lily get to know each other, overcoming misunderstanding and scheming enemies, and their romance grows in a believable way.The novel has a fast pace and a witty style.
