Title: i liked the villain - the rest of the book not so much
Review: The Lion's Daughter offers an annoying tomboyish heroine who misunderstands everything, messes up everyone's plans, and causes more trouble than she's worth, a dandy/rake of a hero who has a nice sense of humor but very little character, and more plot twists than the author can handle. It's convoluted, messy, and not that interesting. I read this after the second book in the series, Captives in the Night, and the only reason I don't regret reading The Lion's Daughter is because it provides a background for Ismal, the hero of Captives and the villain in this book. In the latter, his back story was kind of taken for granted and only obliquely alluded to, and I felt there were some gaps in his character as a result. They were happily filled in here, but that's the only saving grace of The Lion's Daughter.
