I didn't give it a 5 because it lacked the depth in order for it to be a 5. There would need to be more development and a few thing corrected in order to make it a 5.I agree with another reviewer about the babies and Victoria's social status. I thought it was only me but it annoyed me just a bit that we didn't get to know the name of the twins. They were just referred to as "twins" and "babies." I also would have liked Victoria to remain as she was and not have to prove she came from money.Sometime it can work and other times not as much....but I didn't like how Victoria was contemplating being in love with William a day after knowing him. I can understand later on her looking back and saying she loved him from day one blah blah blah. Anyway, I did like that they talked and spent time getting to know each other. Even better I liked that William did give her time before sealing their deal.It is rare you will find a book where the heroine is the mistress and is accepting of it. At least from the books I've read they usually don't willingly choose the path of a mistress, sometimes things just happen to turn out that way. Victoria was more than just accepting, she practically voiced it to anyone who had ears. I was thinking "No she didn't!" It was a little different to see that and interesting to see how they worked through their relationship.I have to say though....William was mean and so demanding! You will either love him or hate him. Although I think he was the way he was with her because she consumed him and like he kept on saying "he was obsessed with her." It was obvious how much he cared for her and I wish we were able to read more of him doing things to show that he cared. I would have liked that but it may not be needed for others. It is just a preference on my part.William allowed Victoria to get comfortable with him again after their separation. He knew it was his fault and he gave her time and tried his best to show her he loved her. It is here I wish we would have been able to see more of this, but just the fact that he waited for her to be more comfortable with him again was good.I didn't like that he gave her the color red. That part was a bit too much for me and basically felt like it defined their relationship with her being the mistress.I was hooked from the first words. I love when books start out with a letter....it just draws you in. I read this within hours and there wasn't a dull moment.
