The misunderstandings to plot development ratio in this book did not slant in my preferred direction, but—on the bright side—extremely well drawn characters.
Also that rarity in romance - physically disabled hero! (I'm trying to remember the last one - I want to say it was Eli in Just Business, who also has his leg injured and uses a cane. Someone who does more disability studies than me has definitely thought thoughts about this.)
This is probably more on my mind than usual, given the book I just finished about Bujold, who thrives on disabling her heroes, but it's interesting to see one in the traditional romance.
