Courting Julia by Mary Balogh

2.0

Overall, I enjoyed this book. But Daniel's insistence for the entire first half (if not more?) of the novel that Julia was being inappropriate and basically giving herself up to men in her behaviour just was not okay. In a book where basically no one else cared what she did, it was not only wrong (she flouted convention but she wasn't very inappropriate in her behaviour) but it seemed incongruous. Later explanations for his beliefs, while fair, did not justify his treatment of Julia in the first half and it made it hard to truly enjoy this book.
