Breathless by Anne Stuart

Since this series is the story about the wicked house of rohan, I really hoped that the protagonist would be a female rake. But alas, that is not the case. Honestly, my biggest problem with this is that it is so classic gender roles and stuff. I just find it too old-school and boring, to be honest.
The LI is supposed to be the evilest villain but I don't agree with this. He was not that evil. I liked him and enjoyed that the protagonist kept teasing him about being Byronic and like straight out of a gothic novel. The protagonist was fun too but it just felt like a big missed opportunity to have another character basically like the protagonist from book one. A virginal virgin but not. LOL, these books aren't even that old but the sentiments are too basic and antiquated for my taste.
I still liked it but I liked the first book better. Unfortunately, I had some bigger issues with that one.
This book didn't have those issues but it was also a bit more subdued.
