emotional

3.5

Is this book dated? Yes. Problematic? Certainly. Worth a read if you're exploring the Kleypas backlog? Definitely. 

Amanda really toes the line of being insufferable, but it worked really well in terms of drawing her overall character; even when I was rolling my eyes at her, I was rooting for her. Devlin was a fun, domineering self-made hero, and there's plenty of soap opera-esque angst and drama, especially towards the end.

Definitely feels of its time, but that actually made it kind of refreshing.  The audiobook narration was fine.
