An original story with a lackluster romance.  The main characters fall in love all too easily and seal the deal within two days of meeting.  I didn't really feel as though I knew the hero very well and I can't pinpoint it to the author's neglect of more inflection on his part or just the story more focusing on Catherine's strife.  There were definitely some good parts that kept me reading, and others that left me wanting.  One of those parts being the ending.  It wrapped up all too suddenly, and I felt a little more time should have been devoted to the husband (Edgar) as he went through many emotions throughout the book...one minute I'm feeling sorry for him, the next I hate him.  But the background was missing and what the first seven years of his marriage to Catherine was like.Mainly depth was missing for me in the characters.  However, that said I did enjoy the read and it was an easy one at that.  So I would recommend it but keep your expectations mediocre and you will be pleasantly surprised.
