Review: Too unrealistic
Rating: 2 out of 5

This story has a heroine who is quite exasperating in her beliefs and feelings about the man who adores her.  All the women seem to bend except both her and her sister.  They seem to be stubborn and even a bit stupid.  The sex scenes are for titillation purposes only.  It's ridiculous to think that these Northmen were sensitive and accomplished lovers anxious to provide for their women's needs in every way, even to the point of crying with them.If you think these kinds of books are really historical novels then you are fooling yourself.  They are just romance books set in another time, and not realistic or very historical.  Still, not everyone wants to learn about real times in a novel, like in the wonderful book Down the Common.  Too bad there are not many books that compare to this gem.
