review 1: I've read some of Dare's other books & enjoyed them. I just couldn't get into this one. Lots of skimming! I wanted to kick Mr. Nancy-pants (Toby) in the teeth. Bell was a walking/talking contradiction. She's run out of charitable causes, so she decides she's going to marry for a title and money -then use her new status to take do-gooding to a new height. I guess she feels like it's okay to be a fortune hunter if you're going to use your husbands status & money to make a real difference in the world. Phhhht! She's such a martyr, she has to be GOOD to make up for the bad deeds of her father and brothers. My biggest problem was that I just didn't care about the main characters. I liked the side characters better. DNF due to boredom
review 2: Quelle déception ! Le
... mores deux premiers tomes de cette série m'ont passionnée et celui ci est tellement insipide ! Les personnages ne sont pas attachant et presque antipathique par moment. J'ai régulièrement eu envie de les baffer... J'ai eu un petit regain d'espoir dans les 100 dernières pages du livre mais bof. Et l'épilogue ne m'a pas plu du tout ! Pas fameux tout ça ! Bref le seul plaisir de ce livre est qu'on y retrouve avec grand plaisir les personnages des livres précédant. Et l'histoire secondaire entre hetta et joss est très sympa et aurait sans doute méritée son propre livre less

I must admit I was more interested in the side romance than the main couple.

The first book is still my favorite, but this series was fun to read!
