There is too much other plot happening in this book, so much that it completely takes away from the very sweet and chaste love story that is happening. We get the perspective of the two "villains" of the story in a way that doesn't add anything extra to the plot, and in fact add too much foreknowledge for the dramatic events that happen in the back half of the book. If it has stuck to only our two love interests (and maybe their mothers, who are delightful), I might have enjoyed it more.
