I had fun reading the book up until it got stupid."SPOILERS"She gets kidnapped, punched in the face, bashed in the head.  An injured ankle, dragged across the country side. He runs a bare foot drunken two mile race. His feet are in shreds, discovers her missing, wherein he puts on hiss boots on and drives a cart,he only knows how to ride, takes off after her, gets himself shot, dragged by a horse. She finally sees his feet and comments on just how bad they are. He puts on his boots and blithely continues to walk.  They, both, are stinky, dirty,and tired but an hour or so later they are rolling around naked in a hay stack.Some reviewers comment on how self centered and controlling she was. I, however, saw a woman who at age fourteen had to make a life for her father, her aunt and three younger sister. She was running a farm, responsible for the welfare of her tenants and a brewery at the same time, of course she was controlling. Jeez.  Let's see if any of you can keep that many balls in the air and not be physically and mentally exhausted.Three and a half stars. I was compelled to take off half a point for the stupid parts.There are a lot of loose ends to be tied up, but maybe they will be in the next two books.
