Review: 20 minutes better spent on something else

My first problem with this book is the fact that the first paragraphs say that Lady Rowena is leaving the court because the man she loves has found another.  Suddenly, the premise changes and she is the wife of old, cruel man who was never able to consumate their marriage.Whoops.  Did someone change their mind and forget to go back and finish editing the copy?Beyond that, the story is ok.  It's mostly just an excuse to write an explicit scene.  Lady Rowena has never known love.  Her maidservant finds a willing servant in the household that will rectify the situation, discreetly.  Somehow things end up, in most unbelievable fashion, in less than a 20 minute read, happily ever after.  I guess.I realize that you can't expect much from a short story, but you should be able to expect more than this.
