Review: Could not get a feel for the characters

I just could not get a feel for the people in this story.The heroine(Alina) acts like a young teen instead of a young woman of 20 years.The hero(Harry) seemed young and a bit goofy at times.One example is when he had to leave on a mission and was to return in 4 days to prevent the arranged marriage of Alina to another.Harry was not back in time and Alina ran away to keep from marrying the other guy...Harry's reason for being late...my horse lost a shoe and I guess I got my days muddled.He also told Alina 3 or 4 times that he really had wanted/planned to marry an heiress. I am sure that made the penniless heroine feel secure and well loved.In my opinion there was too much chit chat going on in many of the scenes and very little, if any, gave me a clearer picture or feeling for the characters involved in the story.I almost gave this book 3 stars, but since I really did not care for it and have deleted it, I went with 2 stars.
