Review: decent story
Rating: 3 out of 5

This is a decent period love story, with many of the usual elements: jealousy, pettiness, rivalry, etc, plus the added angle of it being an arranged marriage. Caitlin is a strong character understandably angered by the arrangement of her marriage and loss of her freedom and this is prominent in the first half of the book. In the second half, we see her development as she learns her role in her new life and meets with her new husband's family. I would give this book 4 stars for the story, although some parts of it towards the end stretch the readers credulity a bit far. The repetitive parts (eg Dillon's commanding stance) I found a bit irritating and the numerous typos bring it to 3.5 stars. The book would definitely benefit from a full edit, however, overall it's a decent story.
