Though this story has an excellent and humorous plot, the wife is so predictable and the groom is such an arse you feel no sympathy for either of them by the time you've reached the middle.  I couldn't even finish it.The "hero" is a cad, unlikeable and arrogant with no redemption in him whatsoever.  A Mr. Darcy he is certainly not.  Though he had a rough, loveless childhood there is nothing in his character; simply lust and mischief.  If I had a quarter for every time the author described his "loins tightening" because he noticed something lovely about his wife I'd be a rich woman.  His guilt really fills one extremely sparse, tiny paragraph of the story stemming from the realization of the mortification the heroine suffered by his callous actions, and the rest of the novel is filled with, "I am a god among men, you will be mine," statements that I really wanted to reach through the page and strangle him.To make matters worse, the heroine is just another simpering love-starved fool whose heart "flutters" and stomach does flips every time he does anything like drink tea.  THIS WAS A BEST SELLING TITLE?  I demand a recount of that statement.  How many people were actually reading during that tally?  Six?  Five?  Of those who bought the thing, how many actually finished this drivel?I can't wait to delete this from my Kindle to purge it of this title.  I'm asking for my money back.  Wasn't even worth 99 cents.
