Review: An interesting premise but spoiled by shallow characterisation and writing.

Rainy Clarke, an independent young woman fills out a form with the Government department which arranges marriages, confident that the government can do a better job than she can in choosing partner. Everything seems right - a fabulously wealthy member of the jet set and a long standing member of a "top" family, goodlooking - what can possibly go wrong with this match? Well, too much drinking and shallow behaviour for a start. The heroine is weak and a bit silly and the characters too stereotyped.I thought I would enjoy this unusual plot which of course ended traditionally in spite of the author's effort to make it different, but unfortunately it was a bit of an effort to get through it.
