Review

The eighteenth century story is competently told although seemingly a little unlikely, the probelm comes with the appalling wet american woman and her nasty husband in the today section. I guess this is targetting a romantic fiction audience but I found her frankly tedious and pathetic and the husband no more than a cadboard figure.

Shame as there is a good book to be written using the basic plot idea, but this is not it.
