Review: Unlikeable h spoilt this one

I read the first book in this series,The Marriage List: full-length sweet historical romance, which I didn't totally love but it was clean and the story was well thought out. The H and h in this book were secondary characters in that book and were intriguing. I liked the idea of this book but the execution left me wanting to throw my Kindle out the window. I can't remember being more irritated by an h ever. She is selfish and hurts the H over and over again. I liked him but he wasn't perfect either, wavering on and off. I want to feel the love story in romance novels, in this one I had my doubts. I'm also tired of the storyline where the h insists over and over again that she doesn't want to get married, it's just plain annoying.***Spoilers***The h was only ever selfish in wanting the H to teach her about debauchery. She was happy to sleep with him without any promise of marriage. At least the H wanted to marry her. When she seduces him for the second time in order to get out an arranged marriage, I just wanted to kill her. She does this all at the expense of the H. He should have married his mistress, at least he knew what he was getting into.
