Review: Good story but needs more character depth
Rating: 4 out of 5

The concept of this story was very appealing, considering how little control women had during this era. The characters were described but they never were fully realized in my opinion. He's a rake with a secret past and she's just a sweet girl. It seemed that they both progressed virtually overnight without any build-up.I thought there could have been more depth with the Spens character. The vague references of his evil & sinister ways just made me angry rather than curious. He would have been a more effective villain with greater depth.Overall though, the story was a good one, especially for a freebie. 3.5 stars would be more accurate, but alas Amazon does not have that option.
